If your having an elective repeat cesarean, it isn't a necessary surgery anyway and it is better for your baby for you to wait until labor starts before you have the c-section. In fact, it's better for you and the baby both for you to forego the surgery altogether and have a VBAC.Every cesarean you have raises your risk levels and those of subsequent pregnancies. If your doctor's cesarean rate is higher than 15%, he/she is needlessly cutting women open, harming them, and putting babies at unnecessary risk. You should really educate yourself about elective repeat cesarean, good vs bad reasons to have a cesarean, and your options. Whether you need the surgery for a medical reason or you chose the added risks for some other reason, I am sorry to hear of the loss of your birth and wish you a speedy recovery.
