Hello Gynecologist | Delivery in 37.6 wk

2021-10-11 03:20:47
Hello Doctor, - I have no medical condition, is it safe to plan a C-Section on 37.6 weeks? Baby weight is 3+ kgs - My Urine analysis test is also Negative - I am 35 years old, 5.3 ft and 87 kgs as on date - I have been given Betnesol injection - My Doctor has advised to do the delivery now in 38th week to avoid any UNFORSEEN complications.. I wish to do it a day prior and she says it's absolutely fine to do so.. Is it absolutely safe to have a planned C Section on 37.6 weeks or is it advisable to wait longer?
