I had a c-section 8 months ago and I just found out that I am pregnant. Is it usually another C-section automatically?

Hello Ma'am,

No, it's not!

More and more women who have already had a C-section are having a vaginal birth. This is called a vaginal birth after cesarean, or VBAC.

So you can enjoy the months ahead without fearing that your pregnancy will necessarily end in another C-section.

Hopefully,

Alexander

I worked as a pharmacist in the emergency department of the Granby Hospital for 6 years before dedicating myself to Ask your Pharmacist. I completed my education in telehealth at Jefferson University in Philadelphia and are recently completed a Postgraduate Diploma in Health Informatics at Université de Sherbrooke.
