I had a planned C-section two in the day of when I was about to go in. They called me at three in the morning and said that they had a lot of women in labor and we would have to schedule it for a later time.

There’s a lot of women who have to stay there are multiple days to be monitored or they just might have a lot of plant C-sections that are taking longer than expected

it might be so that care coordination is easier since it is the weekend, less days off a typical 9-5 etc but idk that’s assuming they’re trying to be helpful, i know for me i was able to be induced at 39 weeks so since it was a planned cesarean they might have just assumed the difference to not matter / want to do it sooner rather than later

Maybe your ob won’t be in that day? My ob did work in two hospitals and would sometimes have to move my appointments around because she had deliveries. My c-section even got moved up a day because she wouldn’t be at my hospital on the original date

Mine got moved forward a day because they had 2 people with GD on same day and no one the day before

it happens, i was scheduled for the 10th and then at my ob appointment they told me they switched it to the 5th

Mine got moved up a day because they had a “sooner” opening. Why didn’t you ask? Unless, they left a VM then why didn’t they elaborate🤔🤔🤔 either way probably nothing to worry too much about 🙂
