I have another ? My doc is doing a amenosintestis at 36 weeks and she told me that they will keep me because if the baby's lungs are devleoped they will take her that day will they give me time to call everyone or will they take it right away and also if they are not developed will they send me home or keep me and repeat later on?? :confused: also what is the chance they will be developed at 36 weeks? Sorry for all the ?s just really confused

As you know, they are doing the amnio at 36 weeks to look for lung development. Did they tell you why they want to do this? Do you have gestational diabetes? Pregnancy Induced Hypertension.

If I know why they want to do this, I can help you better.

No my other son was born by emergancy c- section at 27 weeks and they had to take him classical c-section and now I can't have any more children natrual so they don't even want me to go in labor with this one seen that it has only been a year and they don't wantmy scar to brust open

Okay, what will most likely happen is that they do the amnio to determine lung development, if not developed completely they will give you a steroid called betamethasone to help develop the lungs. They may send you home, or continue to give you the steroids until the lungs are ready for birth.

At 36 weeks, baby is pretty safe for delivery as it is. The earliest they consider "full term" is 37 weeks. So it sounds like they are doing the right thing for you.

They won't take baby straight away, they will give you time to call family and friends.

OK thank you just making sure because my doc said that if they are developed they will take it that day just making sure I can let the family know

Yeah, they'll give you time to let the family know. It won't be like an emergency c-section so, they will give you time to prepare.
