Hi, I have a c-section booked at 38 weeks due to Hydrophronosis of the kidney and back problems. My GP and midwifes have questioned that due to care at home and extreme pain that it should be earlier possibly 37 weeks and to speak to the consultant again. I have concerns about babies lungs and wellbeing and if they actually do do c-sections that early? can anyone share any experiences or knowledge of this to put my mind at rest as I feel I would rather put up with pain and have the baby safe and well. Any advice please.
