I wasn't made to have children vaginally apparently so I have nothin but c-sections in my future. I had one 5yrs ago with my daughter, just had one a week ago with my son and I plan on having two more kiddos. Just cuz I cant have them on my own its not going to stop me from having my family.

@almostmommyof5 its bikini. with the first 2. the scar has healed normal and completely. i havent had any issues with the first two but the drs that i go to they always give me the worst scenario case of anything so i wanted to asl around.

I agree with Rockrose wait until after this baby to decide. I have had 1 c-section and I am hoping to do a VBAC with this baby.

You should probably wait until after this one is born to decide whether to go for another baby - it really depends on how quickly and well you heal.

I had three c-sections and my doctor told me I'd be fine to have another one,  but 3 was enough!

I am on my 4th c section and my dr hasn't been worried about it.  Is your scar a bikini or vertical?  I think that makes a difference.  I may still have one more baby after this one and dr thinks its safe. Good luck!
