Scheduled C Section if your 1st came early?

I'm curious, I'll ask the Dr when I see her in a few weeks... but thought maybe someone has experience.

I know they don't want you to go into labor when you are having a scheduled C section.  My water broke with #1 10 days early, how early would they schedule a C for #2?

My first was also 10 days early (vaginal birth). My dr scheduled my c section for 39w3d. I didn't think I would make it that far and I didn't. She was born at exactly 36w.

My dr is very conservative and wanted to wait as long as possible. Other drs I talked to said they would deliver around 37-38w due to my complete placenta previa.

I was scheduled for 39w3d. Dr wanted to schedule at 39w. My water broke at 38w4d and I was told to immediately come to the hospital. DS was breech so I think that if there was an urgent medical need serious concern for you or baby they would schedule as needed. For "normal" scheduled c/s, I think you just need to go to the hospital if you go into labor before your c/s date.

my first child was 12 days early;  that was not a factor when scheduling my RCS (they scheduled it at 39wks).  There also wasnt a problem with me going into labor early--your comment that they dont want you to kinda confused me/never heard that  (I went into labor at 36wks with no progression, had DS 1hr into our 37th week)
