When would I schedule my CS?

Heres my story:

I had a vaginal birth with my first pregnancy. I went into labor at 38wks 1 day.

This time around my back dr is recommending that I have a CS because I've been diagnosed with grade 4 spondylolthesis.

Anyway, just trying to get an idea. Will my OB want me to schedule my CS at about 38wks? Or will they let me go into labor on my own and then just give me a CS? I am going to talk to my dr about this obviously, but my next appt isnt for another 3wks so I was just trying to get an idea! TIA!!
