(to the mods: this is the 2nd thread i've created on this question, im not sure if the first has been misplaced or put in a different thread but i cannot find it)


I would like to know if anyone who has had a ceasar recently has had this new method of c-section performed on them. I am planning my 4th pregnancy and know i will need a c-section (previous 3 have all been c-s), so it will be planned. But I'm hoping to find a Dr who is performing this new version of the operation.

The Misgav Ladach method is fairly new which is why im not sure if its being done in Australia yet (we are usually many years behind the rest of the world)

It is basically the same cut, except that the abdomen muscles are not cut , they are manually separated to get to the womb. The benefits are supposed to be less blood loss, quicker recovery, less pain, quicker procedure etc.

Any information appreciated.

Cheers.
