Hi,
At the outset, the time interval between the previous pregnancies and this one may have given sufficient time for the uterus to heal well. It is true that a thin uterus after a cesarean is harmful for the next pregnancy, but needs to be evaluated according to the situation. Please consult your gynecologist for immediate assessment through a trans-vaginal sonogram and a physical exam and if it is professed that you can go ahead with this pregnancy, please have regular check up and monitoring. Hope this helps.
