Don’t risk it, the uterus is as thin as a paper

Pregnant After many cesarean sections, women face many dangers such as the risk of fetal scarring, placental abruption, placenta previa, even uterine rupture or postpartum hemorrhage at any time. According to experts, women should not have more than 3 caesarean sections and should get pregnant again after cesarean section at least 18 months.

The story of the mother who gave birth to her third child by cesarean section but still wanted to give birth to a fourth child but was prevented by the doctor below hopes to be a lesson learned for mothers who want to have a caesarean section to consider mentioned carefully.

According to the doctor, Ms. Ln (who lives in China) previously had 3 caesarean sections, but still cherishes the desire to have a 4th child because the family is very rich in economic terms and can afford to take care of the grandchildren. A few days ago, Lan and her husband went to the hospital to check their health to prepare for the next birth. However, after monitoring the history of caesarean section, the doctor immediately intervened: “Don’t risk having children anymore, your uterus is as thin as paper.”

However, Lan still did not accept this explanation, so she tried her best to seek the advice of a doctor to have a chance to have another child. Until the doctor resolutely explained that if Lan persisted in giving birth at this time, the possibility of miscarriage was high, the baby was born unsettled and the body was at many risks.

When she came to consult to have a 4th baby, the doctor immediately dissuaded her.

Only when it came to this did Lan give up her intention to have a fourth child, she herself still did not expect that after 3 caesarean sections, the sequelae would be so great.

In fact, doctors said, when the mother has had the first cesarean section, if the mother’s body is healthy and there are no complications, she should only have a cesarean section from 2 times. This is to protect the health of the mother because in mothers after a cesarean section, the uterus is often damaged and harder to recover than a vaginal birth. The number of times a mother gets pregnant after a cesarean section is proportional to the complications that the mother has to face.

The risks of multiple cesarean deliveries include:

– Uterine rupture during pregnancy;

– Miscarriage, premature birth;

– Losing a lot of blood at birth;

– High risk of infection;

– Injury to other organs during cesarean section;

– Long hospital stay;

– Long wound recovery;

– Affects lactation.
