C-Section date

Elective c-sections and inductions all are booked based on circumstances. For example I am booked in for an induction at 39 weeks which is the 1st October and I’ve been told that I will most definitely be called that day due to me having reduced movements. It’s obviously difficult to say but I would definitely ask the question to anyone you have contact with within your maternity service as they may be able to provide a different answer that is more specific to your area x

I think with it being elective it’s harder to know for definite as everyone that needs an induction/c section due to complications will always come first so depends if it’s due to complications or if you decided you would like one

For example, I got my induction date and time booked in and confirmed 2 weeks ago for 30th September and that’s due to issues in pregnancy so the only way mine would change would be if an absolute emergency had to take my place which is obviously understandable

But I was told with elective someone like me could be put in your place (if it’s been decided you would like one) if there’s no spaces available when the consultant wants them to be induced so I would be prepared for it not to be that day to save disappointment but would be amazing if it was xx
