Not sure if this is the best place to post...
The birth of my dc1 was a typical failed induction leading to emcs story, however the cs was complicated by the fact that I ended up with an extension to the wound because he was 11lbs and they couldn't get him out (!) and I was quite poorly afterwards, really slow recovery etc (don't know if this is directly relevant)
I was advised to have an elcs for dc2 (top London teaching hospital) and from my perspective the procedure was very straightforward though it did take quite a long time to see me back up after dc2 had been born.
Directly after the procedure I was asked if I had any questions and I asked the consultant who performed the cs 'will be able to have more children?' Her answer was 'That was not a straightforward procedure, you were very 'stuck' in there...' (by which I now realise she meant I had lots of adhesions) '...it's not a 'no' but you would have to weigh up the risks'
I would dearly like to have a dc3. What are the risks that I have to weigh up?
