Ideal time for C-section
My wife is 35W+ pregnant. A Usg Doppler was done (attached) around at 32W+ . She is Beta Thal (Minor) and also having ICP. Her SGPT & SGOT levels are as high as 180 as of today. Her Gyn-Ob advised 2nd Usg Doppler, which is due tomorrow. Keeping the previous report (which says there is mild irregularity in fetal pulse and of Grade III placenta) and my wife's Cholestasis in the hindsight, what would be ideal time to go for the C-section?
