Hey Guys not too sure how this thing works but i am only 10 weeks pregnant with my third child. I will be having a c section as have had two previous to this due to breech baby and elective the second time around.
My question is will my obstetrician allow me to have my c section for the third any early than 40 weeks to prevent me going into labour early. I also live way out of town in the middle of no where so i think i would prefer being booked in early to avoid that.
If anyone has any feedback that would be greatly appreciated :)

When I had my babies it was common practice to schedule elective c sections at around 39 weeks.

Generally for a 3rd c section they'd want it before the 40 week mark as they actually want to avoid you going into active labour to reduce any risks. Anything from 38 weeks onwards is not considered to be 'early', so I think around the 39 week is what they'll recommend anyway :)
