Pregnancy after C-sec
Hi Doctor,
My previous mode of delivery was emergency c-sec, baby is just 5 months old now, I'm pregnant again.
My gynaec suggested to terminate this pregnancy, but both continuing and terminating is an foreseen risk since the c-sec scar wouldn't be fully healed (may cause wound in stitches & uterine rupture) . Currently I'm 45 days pregnant, please suggest either to continue or not. If terminating, what would be the safest method to terminate this pregnancy ?
Thanks in Advance!

Usually c section scar heals within 6 months after delivery.. your body also need to recover after delivery wil take almost 12-18 months.. so you think what do you want.. there is chances of thin scar or scar rupture if pregnancy continue.
