Termination of pregnancy before completed 39 weeks does not decrease maternal morbidity. The major impact on maternal complications has the number of previous cesarean deliveries (≥ 3), as well as emergency cesarean section. Patients should be informed about potential risks for maternal health with increasing number of cesarean deliveries, especially after the first cesarean section when counseling in elective repeat cesarean vs trial of labor.
