This is only what I have heard.Ive heard it’s not safe for mom to have more than 3 c sections? As in it really doesn’t matter if you want more kids because you could very well loose your life.
Tubal Removal
So I’m 22, about to have my third C-section and considering having my tubes removed. After this C-section, I will have 2 living children. My doctor and I had discussed removing them after my last pregnancy, but I found out I was pregnant again around the time I had planned to call and schedule (had to be within 6 months or less before the procedure). Today we scheduled my C-section for this baby and he asked me if I was still wanting to have them removed. I signed the paper, just in case I decided I do want it done. But I’m not 100% sure if I do. I feel like I want more children but I have complicated pregnancies and after this one, I have to find a new OBGYN if I get pregnant again. My doctor won’t see women after their 3rd C-section. The next doctor would be around 1 1/2- 2 hours away from where I live. That and previous issues I’ve had make me want to just go ahead and get them removed, but I feel like I want more babies. I’ve always wanted a lot of children. Another thing deterring me from doing it is Ive heard it hurts so much worse having that done than just the C-section. Im torn..
if anyone else has been in this position, any advice would be greatly appreciated.

Sorry, I didn’t mean it to sound like I was attacking you or anything, just found it to be a really interesting topic 😊

The risk is around uterine rupture, however the statistics show this happens in about 1% of cases. From what I could find there is about a 0.7% risk in women who haven’t had a c-section before, so the odds don’t increase that much. There are also a lot of factors that come into it, of the mother tries a VBAC, it can slightly increase the risk but not necessarily if they manage to labour before 40 weeks.
