Is a 5th csection possible after preeclampsia ?
I’ve had 4 csections. My pregnancies have varied health wise as I’m t2 diabetic. My last csection was 18 months ago. I had severe preeclampsia last time, had my baby preterm. The aftermath was pretty bad, I needed several blood transfusions and before I delivered I had stroke level bp, fluid on my heart and lungs too. I feel back to normal finally. My partner has one child and I have 4 boys, and he’s older than I am ( I am 36 he’s turning 53). We are considering a baby. My doctor didn’t say not to have anymore , just my likelyhood of having preeclampsia is high. I am also hypertensive normally but its controlled. Would it be too risky to have one last baby? I was thinking to wait another 4-6 months before trying. I’m asking partly because we had an oops this week and If I end up pregnant I’d be more inclined to keep it. But I am scared to heck about having another bad pregnancy. Or bad delivery. I am not scared about the surgery itself, moreso the aftermath. My last delivery was bad, my incision took two months to heal and was not responding to antibiotics 😣 please don’t judge. My partner would like to have an “us” baby. Anyone have a similar situation?
