Delivering baby at 37 weeks

[mamablondie2]

Hi

Due to my own medical condition there is now a possibility of delivering baby at 37 weeks (by Csection - I was having this anyway). I just wanted to get peoples experiences of this? My last baby was overdue and born naturally so this is all a bit scary for me.

I think I just need some reassurance that it will be ok...

I had a failed induction last year at 37 weeks that ended in c section. All fine. Baby doesn't need steroids post 37 weeks as they are fully mature and full term babies.

I was induced at 37 w 5 days, DD was 8lb11oz, happy healthy and home within 14 hrs.
