: There is no reason to be "super" nervous. It is a greater concern that this will be your 4th C-section rather than the short interval. Placental location near the uterine scar can be a problem but is manageable. The surgery itself can be technically more difficult for your doctor. Get to the hospital promptly if labor starts before your scheduled surgery since that is a high risk situation.
