I have had a c-section with my last child I am pregnant again. Will I have to have another c-seciton? My child was born in May and found out in November I am pregnant.

Not necessarily. It depends what kind of cut you have, up and down (yes) horizontal (not usually). It also depends on the size of this baby, what made you require a c-section last time. Good luck if you wish to avoid another one. I don't blame you.

It also depends on where you are. In the United States, you'll pretty much have to fight to be allowed a v____al delivery since you've already had one c-section, and esp. since it was so recent. Talk to several different doctors to get their opinions.

NO! It depends on WHY you had a c-section the first time. My Dr. said you can almost always elect to at least TRY a v____al birth after a c-section. I had to have an emergancy c-section with my last because she was so HUGE she wouldn't fit. My dr. said this time I could try to have this one vaga___lly if I wanted to, but after a recent ultrasound we found out she is also a lot larger than average and will be at least 9 lbs. at birth so my dr. recomended having another c section since the last one didn't fit. While it is harder on your body to have a c-section than a normal birth, it is MUCH easier to have a planned c-section than an emergancy one.
