    Fifteenth c/s!

    My first was a c/s. I was 41 weeks and 6 days, and after being in hospital for 32 hours with induction obviously not working well I asked for one. However, I'm unsure which way to go with my second. One reason of course how many c/s can you have. I asked my OBs. and she said I shouldn't really worry as you just don't know, she read in a Medical journal recently about a woman in South Africa who just had her fifteenth c/s!!

    My obs. is also happy to let me try for a VBAC and will even let me go over 40 weeks again. Really don't know what to do, but it is early days yet and I am pretty happy she is okay either way.

    I'm interested to know how many people here have had though.

    I've heard of 4 but the last one had to be a vertical incision.

    Good luck with whichever way you end up
