Hello:) normally, when your gynae says they want to deliver your baby earlier, baby is still full term (at least 37 weeks). They rarely deliver earlier than that unless there are other concerns, so you don’t have to worry:) Yes, usually if you’ve had 2 previous C-sects, they’ll recommend a third one, and not vbac, because of the higher risk of womb rupture (bursting). For now, you can eat your normal regular meals... no need to skip meals, but also avoid extra snacks and desserts, so baby will not grow too quickly:) Your husband is really tall, so maybe you have a naturally tall baby too. Of course, with the growth, there can be lots of stretching within the womb, causing pulling pain and pelvic pressure. The big tummy can also cause backaches. Try not to stand or walk for too long, sit down with good back support, and consider a pregnancy pillow for when you sleep. If the pain’s really bad, the occasional paracetamol may help:)
