A doctor recently told me that if you’ve had two c-sections, the third delivery has to be a c-section as vaginal too risky (pressure on scar tissue and so on). He said you could have maximum four c-sections. Hope this helps.

This might not be much help but a friend of mine has had to have 4 C-Sections. They told her after the 3rd baby that she should not have any more but she didn't listen and had to have a fourth they had to cut her stomach the other way which is risky. She was fine with it, took a little longer to recover than the last 3 but they didn't sterilise her at the same time. Good luck x
