I saw my first up close birth of a baby.

Oohhhh the memories when I used to work at the hospital. Ohh and the babies. How much did I love those babies. They were sooo cute. NO.. I never saw an actual birth. I'm sure I would have fainted or something.

I want baby with C-section or without.

Hey, question. Can a woman who has had a C section ever have kids again?

Yes she can. A C-section is performed for a number of reasons. The mother might have a disease, so if the baby is delivered vaginally the disease could spread to the child. Other reasons are the baby isn't in the correct position, the cord is around the neck, etc, etc. A c-section is a last resort method of giving birth. You're thinking of a hysterectomy, that's when they remove the uterus, thus making the woman sterile.

Alot of times a C-section is performed simply because the baby is too big. The doctor doing the delivery risks the chance of shoulder distortia if he/she attempts to deliver a child that will have difficulty passing through the given clearance. And that is one lawsuit that's almost a guaranteed defeat in court for obgyns. What I am curious is, can the scar of the operation completely be removed or will there always be a trace?

As far as I know there's always a scar. Some darker or larger than others depending on the situation and the surgeon. They cut through muscle and stuff straight through the belly skin area into the uterus. That's major cutting. Can't imagine you could do that and have a large enough incision to remove a baby and not have a scar.

My friend had one because she was having complications with her first baby, she had lost a lot of blood, and she was going to die if they didn't get the baby out. So, they weren't as cautious as they could have been if it wasn't an emergency like that and she had a very painful recover and a great deal of scar tissue inside.

Her second birth was also a c-section (she has extremely narrow hips and her kids are big headed ), but it was scheduled and that surgeon cut on the same scar line so there wouldn't be another and cleaned up a lot of the old scar tissue.

99% of the time the incision is in the lower bikini area, so it's covered by clothing. There will always be a trace of the scar, they go through multiple layers to get to the uterus.

<!~Definitely gonna pray for a vaginal birth.
