multiple c-sections (random question)

When you have multiple csections do they leave you with more than one scar or do they remove the previous one? I have a scheduled c section on the second of January and I was curious as to what they do.

Watching!! I've been wondering the same thing.

Ir depends on how you healed from the previous... if you healed well, they generally will use the same incisions.

They used the same one for my 2nd.

Mine they used the same one.

I only have one.

My mom has had three and she has one scar

It honestly doesn't matter my scar doesn't bother me at all i was just curious as to what they usually do but it sounds like every dr does something different. Thanks anyways though girls!!

I have had 3 c sections and going to have my 4th one around the end of april or thr start of may and they have used my same scar and my dr said they are going to use it again with my 4th and said they just cant use more they 5 times... and congrats on your baby

Wow i didn't know they did that! Did the scar get thicker with each one? And thank you I'm pretty excited!!

I've had 2 c-sections. Mine are just about the same.

no not really it is around the same. My dr told me that alot of tissue builds up when some has repeat c section. It really seemed harder to get pregnant with this one than with my others because there is a 4 yr difference in this baby and my youngest and only 2 yrs between my other.. and ur welcome

For my first two they used the same scar, my third will be sometime the end of February and I have not yet been told if they will use the same one.
