What if i go into labor on my own before my scheduled c-section?

I'm 34 weeks and 3 days and I am scheduled for a c section on the 10th of December. But i have already dropped and i am constantly having pains. What would the dr do if i was to go into labor on my own before my c section?

I have a dr's appointment friday. He will be doing the group b strep test and checking my cervix for dilation.

    If you go into labor, they will just give you a c section then. That actually happened to me. Back in 2010, I was scheduled for a c section for March 5th. I went into labor at 3:30am on the 28th of February. I had a c section at 11:59am that day.

    ok I have read that the baby drops around 36 weeks pregnant but could drop earlier. but that doesn't necessarily mean you will go into labor really soon.

  • Then your scheduled C turns into an emergency C. No biggie - you go to the hospital and have your surgery.
