C Section at 36 weeks

Had an emergency c section at 34 weeks. Honesty it was fine, much less stressful than my planned (2nd and 3rd) recovery was great. My baby needed to go NICU due to oxygen and feeding, she was in their 3 weeks. It’s tough but you’ve just got to get through it. My other 2 sections were at 37 weeks and none of them needed NICU, we got to go home the next day. Good luck x

37+2 for my second baby so a week later but he was healthy, over 7lb and needed no help whatsoever. I got ICP so they have to deliver before week 38 but my surgery has no complications for either of us. They floated 36+5 but there was a blood lab strike 🤦‍♀️ he did lose a bit of birth weight but that’s very normal for all babies but he fed fine and had no complications being “preterm”. He’s 16m now, an absolute tank of a boy, never been poorly, hit all his milestones xx

I am in exactly the same situation. Will have a c section in week 36 because of previa major. Will find out the exact date today!

My little one was born at 36+6 he only needed NICU as he developed an infection but he was also born 4lb 6oz so that made him more vulnerable
