Moving c section date
Can anyone advise how easy it is to move c section date? My hospital want to move it later which will make me days away from term. If I ring back and ask it to be slightly earlier, do you think they'll let me? I just really don't want it that far along.

I think its easier to get it pushed to a later date than it is earlier, especially if there’s no medical reason for baby to come out earlier. They certainly wont do it before 39 weeks
I was hoping for 39 weeks but been given my date for 40+1. When I asked if it could be any earlier to prevent spontaneous labour they told me they can go up to 41+5 so I doubt they will bring it forward unfortunately xx
You can ask. But it’s unlikely
I think it depends on the hospital/ trust. I managed to move mine up and they even called the next day to offer an even earlier date (the next day!) which I declined.

For any mamas at Heartlands in Birmingham - BRING YOUR OWN BUTTER! The trust has removed butter and replaced it with margarine, thankfully I was pre warned 🤣

Mama's who had a VBAC after one c-section I have questions!
How long did you push for your VBAC?
Did your scar change the sensation /pain levels of your contractions?
What gestation did you go into labor with your c-section vs your vbac?
And only semi related to c-section, if you were induced with your first and not with your VBAC, how did the contractions differ?
Also if you got to 10 CM and didn't push before your c-section at all let me know because I'm extra interested in hearing from you since that was my experience!

Multiple c-section mums…
When you had your second c-section, did they cut over the old scar or make a new incision?
