Did your doctor do anything different in your 6th (or more) c/s?
I am having my 6th, and my dr says I will not be allowed to go longer than 37+0. Is this normal? Everything was great at my 5th (done at just over 38 weeks due to high blood pressure/preE), she didn't notice scar tissue or uterine thinness.
This pregnancy, I am now high risk & will be seeing a high risk specialist (never have before) where they will measure the thickness of the uterine wall (every 2 weeks after 20 weeks, I think)
Once it reaches a certain number - which I don't know as of now - we will deliver. She says even if the number is good, we will deliver at 37 weeks, as a better safe than sorry type thing.
Anyone have experience??? Is this normal? Did anyone's dr let them go longer?
Thanks in advance!
