Tuesday Jan. 6, 2009. Eubanks waited until she reached the 39th week of her pregnancy to schedule a Caesarean section to deliver her daughter. A study in the Jan. 8 issue of the New England Journal of Medicine shows that babies have fewer health problems if planned C-sections are done during the week before the due date.

AP - Babies do better after a scheduled Caesarean section if they're born no sooner than seven days before their due date, a new large study of U.S. births shows. Those delivered earlier had more complications, including breathing problems, even though they were full term, the researchers reported in Thursday's New England Journal of Medicine. Even just a few days made a difference, they said.
