C-section planned for Week 38 but measuring small



ORIGINAL POST

Hi, I'm 37 weeks pregnant but measuring a week small. I've got a planned c-section in a week's time at 38 weeks + 2 days.

I'm extremely worried about lung development because if my baby measures a week small, she'd be measuring 37 weeks when I have my planned c-section.

Is this okay?

My measurements were always okay until the last ultrasound.

I read that it could be because baby has "dropped" but I'm still worried.

I was asking if I should push my c-section date back a week but dr says there is no need.

What do you think?

Hi Aaliyah,


Try not to worry... Most docs (if not all) class 37wks pregnant as full term. I am sure you're baby will be fine. However, this should be your call - if you'd feel more comfortable putting it back a week then explain your feelings to him.


Hole this helps.

:-)
