I'll be having a planned C-section at around 38 weeks due to complications with baby (a heat problem). I've just been given my section date along with appointments for steroid injections to help harden the babies lungs prior to birth. Looking at some old threads on here I can only see that people have had the steroid injections for very premature birth, not so close to term as I am. Is it normal to have them at 38 weeks.
