My first baby was breech and I had a c section at 40 weeks ..
My girl came 38+2. She was totally fine, needed no help. Came out crying and testing those lungs out. Passed straight to me weighing 7 lb 7. Totally healthy, never had an issue.
My lg come earlier at 37+2 due to being small 5lb2oz and she had absolutely no issues what so ever
I had my little boy at 38 weeks, due to being in labour for a week previous & my cervix not contracting. He was 8lb 6oz when he was born and needed no intervention. 38 weeks is a fine gestation to have a baby at. Xx
My son was born at 38+2, he was 6lbs 1oz (2.8kg) and perfectly healthy
I had my son at exactly 38 weeks he was 7lbs 2oz. He was discharged before me he was doing so good.
If it was too early they wouldn’t do it (unless baby’s life was in danger)
My little boy was born by emergency c section at 38+1 and was completely fine. Good luck! 🥰
My little boy had to come via C-section 36+3, he was 4.6obs/2.1kg - he was taken to be checked and then came to me, he was and is perfectly great - he didn't cry at all for 2.5 weeks but found his lungs after that! He's now 5 months, perfectly healthy and a great weight! Good luck xx
My planned c-section is also at 38 weeks and 5 days
Nah I had my first baby taken out at 36 weeks and he was breathing on his own. 5lb 5.7 oz.
38 weeks and 2 days is safe for delivery. A baby can come vaginally from 37 weeks which is classified as term. 3kg = 6lbs 6oz - baby shouldn’t be under any stress and their lungs are now fully formed so unless their complications at delivery baby shouldn’t encounter any respiratory problems.
