Question

Answer 1

I think 3 is a safe number....4 is risky.

Answer 2

4

Answer 3

Depending on if you are having twins at any point, its 2 babies in one.  

Also I have heard of up to 6 but its not suggested.  

There are hundreds of children who need parents also, Adopting is an option when you cant have your own any more.

Good luck.  

Answer 4

i think its 4

Answer 5

I can only have c-sections too.  My doctor advised me to wait 12-18 months between sections to allow your body to properly heal and decrease your chances of uterine rupture.  

As for how many you can have, that depends on each individual woman and you will have to ask your doctor after each delivery.  My doctor has given me the green light to have another after three sections.  Some women get too much scar tissue built up and can't easily-or safely- have another.  According to "What to Expect When You're Expecting," the author says that you can have as many as you want barring any medical issues or warnings against it from your doctors.  

Good luck!  

Answer 6

It really depends more on how your body heals from each one, how they were done (horizontal vs vertical incision), why they are done, etc. I've had 3 c-sections (4 babies) and now have uterine scarring from the surgeries so I may not be able to carry to term again. We're curently pregnant again but with the lining issues our ncg #'s are looking very good : (

  I know a couple people that have had 5+ without incident and also a few that were told to stop after one or 2.  You should wait at least one year before ttc again after each c-section.

Answer 7

you should wait a year to start trying to conceive again - although some dont and they are fine, but the risk of uterine rupture is there.

its not recommended to have more than 3 section as the uterus is stretched and sewed 3 times and its durability is affected. however, i read in a magazine about a woman who had 8 sections and she was fine.
