I have a c-section planned just because of medical reasons. My doctor scheduled it for February 1 I'll be 39 weeks but she said she wants me to at least make it to 37 so if I'm showing signs of labor before 39 weeks I'll have my c-section sooner.

I dont believe doctors allow c sections to be chosen as a birth plan unless its medically necessary or its a planned csection because they have had previous. At least that im aware of. I know some woman say they want it cuz they are scared of natural birth or whatever their reason is.  But anyways, if c section is planned, usually its scheduled at 39 weeks.
