Is there a true reason behind no more V-backs after 2nd section? or >is it just precautionary? The more c-sections you have had, the greater the chance of uterine rupture if you labor. Also, if you had tried to VBAC before and failed, teh chance of success is lower -- if you pushed and couldn't get baby #1 out, tehn tried again and couldn't get baby#2 out, tehn you probably won't be able to get any baby out. > 2. How many sections can you have?? As many as you want. BUT, the risk of comp[lications increases -- more chance of bladder injury due to scarring, more chance of bleeding, more chance of placenta previa with each pregnancy. >Have there been significant studies done on this particular part of >delivery? yes, studies confirm increase risk with increasing numbers of c-sections (and # of pregnancies and deliveries in general) -- M.
