Planning for pregnancy
Respected doctors,
I am a 34year female with 2kids aged 7 and 2 and both were delivered through C sections.
As a family we would like to plan for another child but wanted to know on how safe is it to have another child if the previous births were all C sections.
I am also having umbilical hernia due to my previous
Pregnancies .
Could you please provide your valuable medical advice on this.

Third pregnancy during the course of
9months won't make much difference.Except
that you need to undergo C section and the
surgery may be difficult if there is lot of
adhesion and to be operated in expert hand.
