How Should Low Oxygen Levels, Controlled Asthma In A Pregnancy Be Treated?

My doctor told me that my oxygen level is low 90% and when I rested for a while and was monitored it came back to 95%. She called my OB and they said I am on bedrest until my next appt. They talked about taking the baby early (i'm scheduled for a c-section at 39 weeks and I am 36 weeks now)..... what are your thought? I have asthma but it is under control and breathing is fine. I feel fine (short of breath though) and wonder if everything will be okay with baby?

As long as your oxygen saturation will be normal there will be no harm to your baby but I think go for c section at 38 week.
