C-sections
Scheduled c-section yesterday for ~3 weeks from now...
I scheduled my c-section yesterday for a little less than 3 weeks from now. My OB didn't schedule me any other OB appts. Is this normal to not be seen anymore once a c-section has been scheduled? Also, do I bring up my questions/concerns at pre-op or do I need to call my OB and talk to them with her?
TIA!

no...I always see my dr.'s every week at the end up until the scheduled section. I find it slightly strange they aren't seeing you until that day because you could still go into labor, and have other things go on in the last few weeks of pregnancy. I would call and make sure you aren't supposed to be seen...because they usually still check for progression, protein in urine, weight, etc.
I never see my dr. very long before my sections. Maybe for a min. or two. Just to go over a few things.
I would ask ahead of time.
I would call back to check with your Dr. My OB didn't specifically tell me to reschedule appts in the last trimester because I was seeing her once a week. It was just part of it that I scheduled another one before I left. Maybe she forgot to mention scheduling the next appt before you left.
you should be seeing Dr weekly at this stage of PG. Perhaps Dr didnt realize your apts were not made?
Also, the day before my scheduled RCS (if it happens) I have an apt with the scheduling nurse to go over everything.
