Hi there. I had two c-sections and had similar pain to what you are describing sometimes it was really bad . I thought I was having a rupture .. I was 33 weeks pregnant , it was during Covid and the hospital did minimal tests , pressed on my scar and said you would be screaming if this was a rupture.

I was hospitalised 3 times after this incident and had my baby at 40 weeks, while I was on the table they advised me I had a large uterine tear. I was very lucky it didn’t rupture. We both could have died. Each caesarean leaves your uterus weaker and if I read correctly it’s only 11 months since your last delivery. Please mention it to your midwife or doctor. I was spoken down to but ultimately I was right. Congratulations on your pregnancy , wishing you the very best .

@Cdh13 - how did it go? I hope you and the children are all doing well. I've just found out I'm pregnant with a 4th and it will be my 4th section. I'm terrified.
