Hi there

THis will be CS No 5 for me..just before the 4th one the Ob advised that there may not be enough tissue ( as they take additional tissue each CS cos they dont use scar tissue) to go LSCS and I may have to have a classical incision...ended up with a LSCS.

Saw the Ob 2 weeks ago and he advised this one may end up classical, and pending where the placenta is I may even need a hysterectomy (placental acretia where the placenta imbeds in the scar tissue is a higher risk for those of us with multiple CS). he also said they would repreat CS at 36-37 weeks so the uterus doesnt get too big and risk rupture.

The good news is the 12 week ultrasound showed the placenta has imbedded on the opposite side of the uterus, so no risk of placental accretia.

My oldest is 24 years, then I have 18, 17 and 4, so I have had big gaps. But I also have diabetes, blood clotting issues and am in my 40s so I guess fertlity alone was an issue for me, let alone complications!

Hope this gives CS mums hope that there is life after 3 C Sections!
