classical incision

Hello!

I am 36 weeks pregnant and had a classical incision (otherwise known as an upside down t incision) I am scheduled for a repeat c section at exactly 37 weeks. I am worried about this. Has anyone had experience? The reason they are doing it so early is due to the fact that they want to avoid uterine rupture. 

Thanks!

    Hi there! I had an inverted T incision with my last child as well. I'm 34 weeks now and have this c-section scheduled for 37w3d. My MFM wanted me to have it between 36/37 weeks to avoid uterine rupture as well. This is baby #5 for me, but my first planned c-section. I don't have a lot of insight to offer, just wanted to say I understand the worry! While 37 weeks is a little early, it is still considered full-term. I take comfort in that, so hopefully that will help. Not much longer and you get to hold your sweet baby! Good luck to you!

    Why did they do that incision? My doctor only uses the bikini cut on me. This will be my 4th.
