Hi XXXXXXX

Thanks for posting your query

If you do not have any compications then no need to worry at all.

Unless any complications arise during the surgery as anaesthesia reaction or infection a woman with previous C section is not in danger of life with a repeat C section.

Even a normal vaginal delivery is possible in such case.

Kindly do not take stress about it and be relaxed as this is necessary during pregnancy.

Have healthy nutritious diet comprising fruits,veggies,pulses,cereals etc.

Drink lots of water,soups,juices.

Avoid smoking and alcohol.

Go for a walk daily.

Take Adequate rest.


Hope this answers your query.I will be available for follow up query
