can you have 6 c-sections?

Answer 1

If you have 6 kids, I don't see why not.

Answer 2

Worse case scenario the integrity of the uterus is lost by the time they remove the last baby, and they have to preform an emergency hysterectomy.

Barring that, theres no real limit to the amount of c-sections you can do. The uterus and abdominal cavity just continue to build up scar tissue over the repeated incision site.

I believe some doctors have preferences as to how many women keep having done. But aside from suggesting that you dont get pregnant again, theres not much they can do to stop you.

Personally I've known women who have had many MANY kids and delivered all or most by c-section.

Answer 3

I personally have had 6 c-sections and let me tell you, when the doctor cut me open the 6 th time he was horrified, My uterus was so thin from the past scars pulling etc, he could see my babys face right through it. he said oh my god. If you had of gone into hard labor you'd both be dead. But.. If you have already had 5 and are pregnant again you dont have any choice.

Answer 4

If you've had 5...im pretty sure you'd definately have a 6th one...good luck

Answer 5

because you have had 5 already, your doctor would not let you try natural child birth. too risky to tear. but i would agree that maybe its time to think about birth control. unfortunately in today's society/economics, 6 children are too many.

Answer 6

idk! my mom is a nurse and works in labor and deliveary. i think a woman can give about 3 c section.

Answer 7

no cos they cant keep cutting through damaged scar tissue. stop havin more kids that can be fatal. GET SOME BIRTH CONTROL PLZ

Answer 8

ask your doctor
