Hi Mumofsix,

the risks are always the same as with any c-section

I've had 3 c-s and the easiest recovery was my 3rd because it was elective and i didnt labor for any part of it.

I've never had an infection but i know some have. Its hard to know if you'll get an infection or not. All you can really do is keep clean and keep as healthy as possible. Eat really well thru your labor, take pregnancy vitamin supplements and exercise regularly. (swimming is good)
