At what point will they schedule a c section?

I'm almost 36 weeks and my baby has been breech for two months now. I have gestational diabetes and they said before they won't let me go past 39 or 40 weeks due to that. However I had a growth scan yesterday and she's measuring perfectly and not too big. I start my weekly checks this week. When do they typically decide to schedule a c section?

My first one they said they will not let you go past your due date. This time I have it again and I chose to c section and I am having him at 39 weeks. They will not schedule it any sooner.

My baby isn't breech, but she has been measuring big. I'm 34 weeks and go for weekly check ups and sonograms ready. My Doctor said they will talk about a c section starting week 36.

Ehh. My doctor told me last apointment that by 36 weeks that's usually where they will stay. I know there is exceptions to any rule but I doubt they would try to induce me with a breech baby.

Baby can turn anytime so you might not need a c section they decide that when your ready to go into labor so they are probably gunna try to induce you first .
