Hello Maleika

Thanks for your query.     



Majority of C.sections ( 99.8%) are in lower uterine segment. Upper segment C.section is very rarely done by any body these days. Many women deliver normally after first C.section ( but there is no guarantee),but ensure minimum time gap of 2-3 years in between pregnancy
