scheduled C-section

With my first daughter i had an emergency c section. I went into respiratory failure twice and had to be resuscitated woke up 4 hours after my baby was born. My heart gave out twice I believe because of the induction two epidurals pain meds then they put me to sleep. I'm seeing a new OBGYN this time and they want to schedule a C-section a week from my due date just curious on other moms who had scheduled C-sections did it go smoother? Was the recovery harder ?
