37 weeks. They don't like you to go past as don't want you going into labour naturally

3 c sections for 1 placenta previa and 2 low lying . All done at 38 weeks . No problem with any of them except the pain after was pretty horrendous for a few days . I recovered very quickly and was fairly back to normal in a couple of weeks .

Was it exactly 38 or near 39 please?
and have you tried any creams for the scar ?

Low lying placenta was picked up at 20 weeks, still there at 28 and 32 weeks. I was advised a likely c section at 39 weeks so was aiming off for that but was still hopeful it would move up on its own.

Scan at 36+5 showed complete placenta previa over the cervix and head was engaging so ended up being pushed through and had the section 48 hours later. No hospital admissions or bleeding at all though.
