c-sections

I am in33 in good health, I have 3 c-sections and a tubal reversal,all this was done scar on top of the same scar.    I am now pregnant again and I will have another c-section How many more c-sections can I have without any risks

Wow 3 c-sections?  Did you have any vaginal births?  I think the biggest risk of C-sections and pregnancy is that the scar is a weaker point of the uterus and therefore there is a higher risk.

I had a friend who had 3 c-sections and they told her after that no more, they tied her tubes

I just had my 2nd c-section 12 days ago. Since my son had been born via c-section, I asked my doctor about any risks. She told me not to worry, that everything would be fine and she had just done her 7th c-section on one of her patients and everything went fine.
You should talk to your doctor though because it just depends on your doctor and perhapse city and/or state.

Doctors don't like more than three, but that is just a number.  In reality, your risk goes up for every c/s.  Number one has risks, just because it is surgery, Number 2 has risks for the same reasons, plus you have had one c/s already, there could be scar tissue plus a weak scar.  It increases each time, but how much is unknown.  I had a complete uterine rupture with pregnancy #2, with one prior c/s.  It is all the great unknown.

I'm 12 weeks pregnant with my 4th child and have had 1 miscarriage & 2 c-sections.  I never planned on having one, but had to have an emergency cs when my oldest sons heartrate dropped.  My second son was a scheduled cs.  My OBGYN is not very happy with me right now because I am getting ready to have my third cs in three years.  Has n-e-one else had this?  I recovered fine from second cs but she said my uterus was thin and she had to remove alot of scar tissue.  My dh and I were using otc birth control methods, but still got pregnant 11 months after second cs.  Doc said I'm just a fertile myrtal.

Hello there,

I would like to ask the risk of having 3 consecutive c-section, my first c-section was Feb 2008, 2nd was on August 2009 an right now I’m 3 months pregnant... Hope anyone can give me advice that will ease my fear in having 3 consecutive c-section.

God bless …
