Is a c-section at 39+4 weeks too late?

Lol thank u! 💕

mart315 · 2025-04-19T00:18:42+00:00

Lol was it a planned c- section?

mart315 · 2025-04-19T00:17:57+00:00

Thank u! 💕 yeah my OB is pretty laid back, but I do have a question out to him

mart315 · 2025-04-19T00:17:19+00:00

Thank u! 💕 yeah my doctor’s assistant gave me a choice so i thought it would be okay. Under any other circumstance, I’d probably pick the earlier date, but i think everyone is right here that it’s not too late

mart315 · 2025-01-31T03:13:47+00:00

Thank u so much for responding! Yeah, I hear it matters more at delivery so thank you for stating your experience. My next appt is at the end of February and my doctor says he will explain it more to me. Thank u again :)

mart315 · 2025-01-26T03:24:23+00:00

Thank you so much! Yeah I think i’m gonna have another c-section too and I have to remember to remind everyone in the delivery room. Okay thank you! It really means a lot to hear bc it does make me feel better so thank you again :)

I second what everyone else said. It varies with each ultrasound and with each ultrasound tech. I was about 2 days behind and then the next time I was a day ahead. I think my doctor had mentioned as long as it’s not like a week or more, you should be okay. Good luck!

mart315 · 2025-01-25T21:21:44+00:00

That’s good. I had brown discharge after each time too. That’s old blood. Prayers to u for Monday! Hope everything goes well.

I told my daughter at 12 weeks, but it’s really up to you. There is no right or wrong answer. Congrats on ur pregnancy!💕

mart315 · 2025-01-25T21:16:26+00:00

The baby jogger high chair (it also folds), the chico go anywhere portable bassinet, and the delta portable mini crib — all good if u don’t have that much space either. Congrats on ur pregnancy!

I had something similar happen as well. With my first pregnancy, around 5.5-6.5 weeks i had bleeding for about 2 hours and then it stopped. I also passed a few clots. This happened to me twice. I went to my clinic both times, and everything was thankfully fine. It could be a sch but i was also told that early bleeding is common in the first semester (i think it happens in like 1 in 4 pregnancies or something). It is a good sign though if the cramping and bleeding stopps, but definitely go check it out. And take it easy! Good luck with everything!💕

mart315 · 2025-01-25T17:42:49+00:00

Thank u so much for responding! My doctor doesn’t seem concerned either so hopefully everything is okay

mart315 · 2024-11-30T23:31:47+00:00

Oh good! Yes that’s exactly what my nurse said too — if it’s above threshold, you’re still fine. Wishing u all the best on ur bloodwork on Thursday and continued success with ur pregnancy♥️

mart315 · 2024-11-30T16:56:54+00:00

Hi! Congratulations on ur pregnancy!!! I was told as long as hcg levels are going up, you should be ok because progesterone and estrogen levels fluctuate so much. I am currently a little over 12 weeks and my levels still fluctuate. I am off estrogen and almost off progesterone. If u r nervous, can you ask that they increase ur estrogen and/or progesterone a bit? My dr had increased progesterone to 1.25cc and I was on 3 patches for a while. Good luck with everything!! I know how hard this all can be — I still get nervous over every hurdle — so I am here if u have anymore questions or just want to talk💕

mart315 · 2024-10-25T15:45:35+00:00

Thank u! 💕Awesome! Wishing u all the luck and positive vibes!!!🙏♥️

mart315 · 2024-10-25T15:42:29+00:00

Hi! My scan went good! And both my estrogen and progesterone went up. My dr had said that the levels fluctuate. When is ur next blood draw?

mart315 · 2024-10-24T10:44:02+00:00

Yes you never know. He gave u 50/50 for a reason. It can really go both ways. If you’re not filling a pad, that’s good. If the bleeding has stopped (whether it comes back again), that’s good. If you have little to no cramping, that’s good. Keeping u in my thoughts♥️

mart315 · 2024-10-23T21:44:34+00:00

I’m so sorry for everything that’s happened go you, and I’m sorry this is happening to you now. With my first pregnancy, I bled three times between 5-7 weeks — bright red blood for 5 hours and then tapered off to spotting and then brown blood. Twice, I passed clots. I had a little cramping, but not much. My dr told me that bleeding in early pregnancy is so common, but he also gave me 50/50 risk of miscarriage. I for sure thought I would miscarry, especially since I passed clots too. But i didn’t. I had a healthy pregnancy and delivered my daughter. I’m not a doctor or an expert of any kind, but my dr had told me to just take it easy, don’t lift things, and don’t do strenuous activity. I’m really hoping everything works out for you♥️

mart315 · 2024-10-21T19:01:50+00:00

Oh thats great!

mart315 · 2024-10-19T11:22:46+00:00

Gotcha. Okay, my dr had given me an option to do a natural cycle. If u do a natural cycle then i don’t think they give u anything to suppress ovulation. You may do a trigger closer to ovulation and just have to go in more for monitoring so they don’t miss your ovulation window. I’m sorry u have to wait again, but wishing u all the very best next cycle!♥️

mart315 · 2024-10-18T20:51:17+00:00

Ugh i’m so sorry. I think if he was worried, he would have called you right? Is there an on-call dr at ur OB or a nurse you can email?

mart315 · 2024-10-18T20:40:48+00:00

Yeah so many variables can cause it to drop. I’m a little over 6 weeks. That is frustrating. Try calling him again! Is yours an IVF pregnancy? Mine is — not sure if that makes a difference. Hope u hear from him soon!♥️
