[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]This was a seminal study assessing early elective delivery, which found that multiparas with a prior c-section had 35–55% increased odds of neonatal morbidities compared with continuing the pregnancy to 39–40 weeks of gestation. https://journals.lww.com/greenjournal/FullText/2016/04000/Infant_Outcomes_After_Elective_Early_Term_Delivery.6.aspx Given the probability that not all babies (or humans) are at precisely equivalent development at X age, and those final days do count a lot for brain development, and as long as no medical issues crop up, I think you are reasonable to ask to schedule it closer to the end of 39 weeks rather than the beginning.[/quote] oops, I meant to say that the above pertains to those having an elective repeat C. Those babies born by early induction did not have significantly increased odds of morbidities in the study. It's in the link but thought I would clarify.[/quote]
