Recommended a C-Section

I am 39+5 today. At my final growth scan yesterday i was told baby is measuring on the 97th centile. Approximately 9lb8oz. Due to my small stature and him being particularly wide shouldered I’ve been recommended to get a C -Section.

Has this happened to anyone else here?

It’s a big change to our original birth plan and I am curious (terrified) and wonder if anyone has any hints and tips to help with a C-Section delivery and recovery??

Any help is appreciated??
