Patient's question:
Hello everyone. I am in the later stages of pregnancy now. During this time, I feel it's very hard to endure. I have severe swelling in my feet and suffer from neurasthenia at night. I really want the baby to start moving quickly. But there's still no movement. Today, I am 39+4 weeks pregnant. Can I have a cesarean section?Doctor's answer:
If you have already been questioning about 39 weeks and more, it should be possible to have a cesarean section. At 40 weeks, it is considered full-term. If you plan to have a cesarean section, you can decide on the date to have the surgery around 38 weeks. Besides the physical discomfort and difficulty in movement during the later stages, it can indeed be quite challenging to endure. It's a good idea to choose a good day to go to the hospital for a cesarean section. Generally, you will first need to check in, undergo various tests to check your condition, and after the tests, the surgery will be scheduled for the third day.In addition, during the treatment for a cesarean section, besides taking medication and undergoing treatment, the patient's dietary condition and mental state are also very important.
