36 weeks 1cm dilated & 50% effaced

i did. i went in to get checked because i was having contractions a week before my surgery. i was 38 weeks. your doctor might try to let you make it to at least 37 weeks so you’re considered full term. i was 1cm and i think 80% effaced and they told me i had to get my surgery that same day

but mine was for a medical reason. my drs were worried somerhing would happen if i pushed or got very far into labor. idk if it’s medical for everyone with a scheduled c section 😅
