That first csection can be so devastating! But God is good, and trusting in His will is so important like you said. I have had seven csections, and I am expecting my 8th child. I cling to a prayer that brought a lot of hope called the Virgin of Childbirth. Childbirth can be so emotionally and physically difficult whether csection or not, but the reward of our children and raising them for heaven is such a wonderful gift from God.

I had 6 c-sections and type 1 diabetes and I agree with everything you have said. I’ve had bad doctors that said stop after 3 for no reason but my age, which was 30 at the time. I decided to see a specialist and that was the best decision. I switched doctors and had 3 more beautiful children. My advice to anyone, like you said, is find a doctor who doesn’t have an agenda but looks at you and your health as an individual.

[@pbetty82]

@@ACatholicMomsLife Hi. I love your videos. I find so much inspiration and peace as a mother myself. You are everything I aspire to be. You seem like such a good modern imitation of Mary. I pray to give all of myself to God like you do. How do you discern if God wants you to have more children? I am 38 and was terrified that I’m getting too much up in years. I have 2 boys. One is 8 and is autistic, and a 3 year old who doesn’t speak and have feeding challenges (meaning he doesn’t seem to ever want to eat). He’s very small for his age. Both are physically healthy otherwise. Both have communication issues, and it’s extremely stressful. That being said, I couldn’t imagine my life without them. They are truly God’s blessings. I try to remember to offer up everything to God, all the good, all the bad, all of it. There’s a hesitation to try for more children. One reason is because of my age. I feel like time is running out. Another reason is there’s a fear I will have another special needs child and that I won’t be strong enough to handle it. I also come from a big family. My mom had 8 natural children herself, and I think my body is meant for having babies. I couldn’t have asked for better pregnancies, and both deliveries were a breeze. Thanks and glory be to God! The thought of never holding another small baby of my own sometimes makes me a little sad, but most times, I’m completely ok with what we have. My husband and I also do nfp. When I ask hubby, he says we’ll just leave it in God’s hands. I agree but laugh at the same time when I tell him that it takes some participation from our end. Anyways, any thoughts would be appreciated. Sorry for all my rambling. Thank you and God bless!

[@monicamag7543]

You are an inspiration to young moms everywhere. Putting yourself out there and sharing your beautiful family. I was not able to have my own children. But I was never worried, I knew God had a plan for me, and it was adoption. I have the most beautiful 2 girls I adopted from a foreign country. God has given me all I need for a full life.

This is very encouraging. My story is very similar. We’ve had four c-sections. We actually had three in three years with a miscarriage thrown in that time period as well. We switched to Marquette NFP after our third because my body really needed a break. Our fourth was born four years later. We always ask the doctor while they’re in there if we’re ok for another baby. The doctor said we’d be ok for one more, but that it would be pushing it. The recovery after my fourth was actually the easiest. The doctor really took his time and put everything back where it’s supposed to be. I had lingering pain after the first three that’s finally gone. We’d love one more, but it’s in God’s hands. Hopefully, when my husband gets home from his deployment it will happen. Thanks for the encouragement!

Never Take for granted the beautiful Gift of Life God gives us.

[@kaylap5166]

This really gives me so much hope and knowledge on what to do continuing forward. My first son was vaginal and then we got pregnant with my daughter and she had special needs so we had to do csection to be cautious for everyone. They had to do a T incision c section so now I have to do c sections for the rest. It was heartbreaking because we too want a big family but all the medical staff thinks it’s ridiculous and not good. Thankfully we found a dr who takes it each pregnancy. We are pregnant now and this will be our 3rd csection (we too got pregnant 10 months out by surprise) and they are starting to be like ok no more but we are only 13 weeks so until they open me up they won’t know. Praying to God that everything continues to be ok and we can continue after this one as well!

I am 42 and have 7 children first normal birth and 6 c section. I have been told that I do have alot of scarring, since my first c section got infected and had to heal from bottom up, but the rest were not too bad, painful some were, and all I had to do was ask my Lord to help me thru my journey and everything has gone well, I really need to learn the NFP, because it is scary to have another c section, it does make me nervous, but because I do have much scarring...but also afraid to get pregnant thru the learning experience 😕

[@amytaylor9836]

I've had 5 c-sections and I'm 26 weeks with Baby 6. We have 5 girls and we are finally getting a boy!

Did everything turn out ok?

[@Tia-MarieFoodEatingChallenge]

Whats the gap between each c section

[@bebangsvlog5379]

I'm planning to make 5th baby but I'm scared ..in Philippines they did not allow to have multiple CESAREAN birth

[@angiefuentes186]

@@Tia-MarieFoodEatingChallenge Sorry for my ignorancia ..,could you tell me what’s gap means.. please..

[@josephijing3325]

What did you do to get a boy please I also have girls

[@cristinaandronesi3747]

I am a mom of 4 boys by c section My first recovery was also very very hard The second and the third was pretty good but the fourth one was harder because my section opened and the recovery was hard But thanks Lord , now it’s almost a year And I’m ready for a girl , hopefully 🙏🏼 At least a girl 🌸

[@umamaAlqattan1367]

5 c-section ? Is everything all right?

[@BrownEyedPhillyGirl]

Wow I had an identical situation with my baby. Dilated at 10cm but my son would not drop (they put me in a bunch of different positions but nothing helped). So when they told me I needed a C-section, I was shocked and so defeated. Cried and had a full blow panic attack. The recovery was also sooo hard. But hearing your experience about the following C-sections was really refreshing and makes me hopeful. Thank you for sharing your experiences!

[@acatholicvocation_7100]

I’ve had all my children (4) V birth, Currently 28 y/o due in 2 months and the doctor is giving me a hard time, it’s like he’s giving me a million and one excuses to not continue having children. I put a stop to Him our last appointment, I think it’s incredibly sad how He can’t see his vocation as a blessing, to bringing life into this world!

[@martamurray]

I am going to have my 4th c-section in August. I was given an okay even though after my 2nd one I had some complications but with my 3rd (when they opened me up) said all looks great. A little bit scared but hoping for the best. This will be our last one for sure. Always wanted to have 4.

[@meghankelly2156]

I have had 4 csections all 2 years apart would love to have one more thanks for sharing your story!

[@clarawagner2031]

this is what I wanted to hear.. my delivery turned out to be the opposite of what I was expecting.my mom had us naturally and the csection was never something i considered. But his heart beat started dropping and I was no dilating whatsoever. after my c section the recovery was quite painful, although i was thankful for my son I felt like a failure for not being able to do it naturally.. I accept it now and Im thankful and so In love with my son. Anyhow, In my country they tell me I cant have more than 3 c sections, and that you have to wait 2 years for the next pregnancy. I want more kids, i love being a mom, and considering my age I know I cant wait too much. Your story is encouraging.

[@chriswhittington294]

My son was born by c section. After 28 hours of labor, it was a blessing!!! 🙏❤ He is 24 now, and an absolute joy of a young man who loves his faith in this crazy world. Thank you Jesus! 🙏❤ You are such a lovely, strong woman of faith. I enjoy watching your videos. You give me faith in humanity! ❤🙏

[@kimberlygill8212]

I had 5 too. Thank you for talking about this. Is so important to share. It's not easy. I did feel like a failure. Over the years God helped me through it all.

Thank you everyone for sharing your stories. 💝

[@estefanyquiroz9277]

Thank you so much for sharing this video. I am 39, and I am expecting baby #5 (which will be my 4th C-section. My Dr told me last C-section that my uterus looked thin. That was 6 years ago so this video was very comforting because I am pretty nervous this time around but also so so happy!

[@crazyclinically828]

This video (and the comments too) have been so reassuring and calming. I unfortunately had to have a C-section after a failed induction and I was sad to hear it could limit the number of children I could have. I'm hoping for 5-6 but I'd be so thrilled to have at least 3. This makes me think it's possible.

[@socialwork30]

I've had 4 C-Sections 😊. Thanks for sharing your story! ❤️

Did ur tubes tied

[@jennlouviere]

Thank you!! I'm 2 weeks away from C-Section #5 for babies 5 & 6 all within 6 years. You've been an inspiration for me. I felt so much shame after having my first C-Section. I'm thankful for the science behind healthy c-sections and for you sharing your story.

Hi .after 1st c section delivery whts the gap for 2nd delivery....?? Reply plz

Loved this video. Thanks for sharing it! I can relate to so much of what you said. I’m pregnant with my 8th and it will be my second c section. I love that you wanted a big family! I personally find my greatest joy in having a large family, however they decide to come 🥰

Hi Kathleen aftr 1st delivery. When did u concive baby whts gap. Plz tell me it would b help for me if u tell me Nd whts ur age?.....

[@samanthasmorong7519]

Thank you for posting these videos. There is so much shame around csections but mine with my second saved my life as they found tumours on my tubes which were the first stage of cancer and I had no idea. Thankfully with being removed, no cancer for me and I get to enjoy my two babies to the fullest. No more babies for me biologically but God had a plan as I tried to have a VBAC but I felt pulled to csection after 24 hours and we would of never know if I succeeded.

[@faithyon3997]

I wow this video really helped me I just had my check up at 6 months and the doctor told me that the previous doctor was supposed to close me up as I have had 3 c- sections and I had to be cut open for an ectopic pregnancy he told me I could die which really made me scared and I feel s do much better just watching what you have experienced all my csections went well and I healed quickly by the grace of God...... Thank you❤

[@shamrock3354]

Being single at 29, with a mother who struggled to carry children to term, this is a very reassuring video. Thank you for sharing your experience!

[@TamGreat]

I liked hearing about your experience. I'm sorry that you had to deal with multiple c-sections and that doctor (who didn't cut you open) saying those things to you.

[@ЛизаАдамс-э1я]

Beautiful account. I had 4 csections in 6 years. I’m 49 now. I ran out of courage in my 40’s to have another. Prayers.

[@BlessedisShe]

You are so amazing. I am so encouraged by you❤️

[@ACatholicMomsLife]

Thank you

[@carolinafarmgirl1057]

This is so encouraging, Heather. I'm in my mid 40s & we might be expecting. I had GD and cesareans with my first two babies. Our older kids are 22 & 16 and our youngest son was stillborn in 2012, so this baby would be our miracle child/rainbow baby. I'm anxious, but Thy will be done. Please keep us in your prayers. -Amanda

[@maggie_codes]

My husband is going to reverse his vasectomy (I wasn’t a practicing Catholic when we chose that). I’ve had one C Section. This has helped me if we end up conceiving again and I have to have a C section. Thank you for sharing

[@gracens1380]

So glad you are recovering well! Maria Grace is my Confirmation name! I have had 2 emergency cesarean. Right there with you and so thankful for them, as I am sure both my kids would not be here otherwise. My first was like yours and the second I started bleeding and they think it was a placental abruption. So thankful for the skilled doctors and the gifts they were given!

[@marykeller3077]

I had a tubal litigation before I converted to Catholic and now I feel as though I should have a reversal. My doctor seems to think at 39 it would be a waste of time. I feel as though God wants me to fix what I have broken. It’s frustrating when the doctors put a negative view on giving birth at this point in my life. I really don’t feel old lol. 😀

[@amy.garland]

Don't let a doctor's opinion supercede God's Will.

[@foorlife632]

I just had my 5th baby at 38. This was my first c-section. This was weird and scary for me not going through the labor and having my first ever surgery. Even though this was the best decision, I still felt like a failure, not doing it naturally like the others. After our son was born we found out the cord was around his neck and it just reassured us that we took the right path. We never seen it in any ultrasound. Our 3rd baby was born also with the cord around his neck and ended up spending his first week of life in the NICU. So happy that we both are ok.

[@nemahmah2143]

I've had 3 c-sections with 3 healthy babies. Recovery escalated quickly from my first one being a breeze to me bleeding out twice after my 3rd. During my third c-section, they nicked an artery. My youngest will be 4 in July. I'm fairly certain that I want one more as I told them to do what they had to do to save my uterus as they were prepping me for 2nd surgery to repair the nick. However, my immune system loves to over react, I too have gestational diabetes, and now with the pandemic, I'm just terrified of giving birth. I've always loved pregnancy, even through progesterone shots, finger pricks, and sciatic pains. I also love the outcome. My doctor said with her mouth that my uterus could handle another pregnancy but her eyes said I couldn't. I'm so scared, nervous, anxious, and praying about a 4th. Bless my husband, he's waiting eagerly but patiently.

[@evelynb4675]

Honey how about adoption. So many souls earthside waiting.

[@susanmurphy7869]

Yes, you should never feel bad that you had a C-section. My first son was delivered by C-section 37 years ago since he was a breech birth. My other 2 children were VBAC. The only thing you want is a healthy baby and momma. 🙏🙏

Your story mimics my daughter and I. I had 8 children, all natural births. My daughter had 5 c sections. Her first was an emergency. However she isnt as blessed. She is unable to have anymore. She has too much scare tissue and her last was a high risk pregnancy.
