Third C-section Experience

Marina

Hey everyone!

We have 2 little guys (2.5 and 1) who were both born via c-section. My first was an emergency section after 27 hours in labour, and my second was an unsuccessful VBAC after 10 hours of labour.

We would love one or two more children, and had planned on trying again this August, as that would be two years birth to birth from our current youngest, but I am starting to feel a little anxious about undergoing another c-section. Both of my pregnancies and sections were pretty typical with no complications and I recovered really well, so I’m wondering if I’m maybe working myself up a bit?

What was your 3rd (or more) c-section experience? Did you have more or less anxiety/worry about it?

(I do plan on consulting my doctor before trying again as well)

Thanks!
