Birth by Cesarean - three times over (long)

[Triathe]

Thanks! We chose Seth because it was a bit unusual at the moment but just about everyone seems to have trouble saying it, he gets called 'Sef' all the time!

o.k just curious here forgive me for intruding but have you ever found out if you can have 4 c sections??? i have had three also and was curious is it possible? whats the harm if having 4 if any do you know?

[youngmumof3]

i have had 3 in under 4 years and i was told if i wait at least 5 years this time before falling pregnant again i should be fine hope that helps

I have had one in 2001 then 2005 then 2008 so thinking is 2009 or 2010 going to be alright?

[youngmumof3]

i think yea mite find they will tell you to try and hold off till at least 2010

If you only had your last this year then I would say wait until 2010, but I know you can have 4 without any trouble, as long as you take the time to heal properly in the meantime and maybe get checked out by a doc when your ready to try to concieve. I know I would like a fourth child in a couple of years so I would be going in for another ceasar, but I'm aiming for around 2010 maybe 2011.
