    i think your mental health also has to be taken into consideration by an OB, given this situation anyway, its not just a matter of 'being over it'

    If I went for #3 my OB said that she would do a c/s at 37 weeks because I ruptured with DD2 and she wouldn't risk that again. It depends on the individual circumstances I think.

    My Ob wants to go at 37 this time due to my rupture last time. I was going to push for longer, but the closer it gets the more anxious I am. I can't imagine how you're feeling.

    Agree with OP. Just ask, they won't mind.

    Hun as I said to you last night your mental health is vitally important and if at any time you have a breakdown or are super anxious you speak to your OB, he knows your history and I am sure he would do a CS earlier to assist this. Hugs hun xoox

    Your Ob is the bomb, just talk to him about it and hopefully you can twist his arm. Xx

    I had terrible time towards the end with my pg with wee man and I was starting to ask my OB to deliver around 35 weeks, to which of course he refused and assured me everything was going to plan, so we stuck to my planned c/s at exactly 38 weeks. I did ask to be delivered early every time I saw him, I thought it was worth a try. He kept telling me it was better for wee man to be inside than out, especially as I had no issues health wise, it was just my mental state. Have a chat to your OB hun, as if you get that stressed towards the end, it won't be good for either of you.

    A friend of mine lost her son at 35 weeks due to unforeseeable circumstances so she was highly monitored at the end with induction initially planned for 35 weeks. Baby was doing well so they pushed it to 37 weeks, and it was bang on 37 weeks.
