Hi all, I am waiting blood test results of possibly a third pregnancy,and would like to know those of you that have had three or more caesareans,what were the age gaps between them.My first was six years ago and my second was almost two years ago,if i am pregnant then i will have to have one again. A little nervous about the results and will find out tomorrow.

My cousin has had 5 caesareans, the kids ages are

12 years
11 years
6 years
2 years
6 weeks

I should mention that the oldest 3 children are deceased which is why the doc allowed her to have 2 more caesareans. They strongly recommended she didnt have her 5th child but there was no stopping her. There is way too much risk involved in her having a 6th so she is not allowed to have any more children

oh dear, if you dont mind me asking what happened to them?? Was it to do with the c-setions??

No, it was a car accident. She only had the 3 children at the time and all of them passed away. Hence why she has recently had 2 more children. She is by far the strongest woman i will ever meet
