"So sometimes, it is not always possible for women to have only one cesarean or two cesarean. For some reasons people might plan a more prominent family, or there were problems in the first cesarean baby hasn't survived or we haven't need to do many cesareans generally everyone will ask is it safe to go for a second is it safe to go for a third is it safe to go for more like four can we still plan a more prominent family so the risks that can be involved can be very varied some women will have a lot of risks even with one cesarean. The second cesarean might be the most complicated, but the fourth or fifth cesarean is also not that complicated for some, and we can do it more safely. When can we say that women will have complications when we do cesarian? In the second cesarian, we can see that the structures that are pretty stuck inside the uterus are very scarred and thinned out. Then we will tell in that cesarian itself that it might not be very safe to go for a third or fourth one because when the scar is so thin, the subsequent pregnancy, the chance of the scar giving weight is very high. For some"

"So nowadays the videos are so much on so many people would have seen video of a cesarean section. But let me explain that seven layers is it's true like there are layers that you have to go through women's body to reach the baby. So what are those? Let me explain when we are taken to theater we clean and put the drapes so we use an antiseptic solution to clean the tummy and we use sterile drapes to cover the women or except the tummy where you have to open and we go just above the pubic bone. This stays a very nice neat scar but the size of the scar is almost to size of the head. So it's around 10 cm baby's head diameter is the measure for us. So around that much incision or the cut we have to make so we will do the cut just above the pubic bone which also called bikini line incision these days. So it's very cosmetic at the same time. This is how we have been used for over the years years before like 30-40 years. Before we used to do an up and down cut from naval till the pubic bone which is almost very very rare these days. There are still one or two indications that we do up and down but most of the time 99.9% of the time we are going bikine line. So what are the things that come under our way like. First thing is we'll make a cut on the skin and what is under the skin is the fat so we'll go through the fat fat is easy you just stretch it and it'll be fine and then there is layer which is white and ging and that is very strong it's called rectus sheath. It's like a sheath it's a ligament like structure and that is the most common thing that protect the tummy or the bowel contents not to come outside. So that is a strong one in our tummy that you have to go through it's called rectus sheet. So you have to cut most of the time and right under the sheet is the muscle it's called rectus muscle. There are two strong rectus muscles in our tummy when they are together the support is good so those you see people with six-pack and everything it is all those musles that's called rectus musles you don't have to cut that muscle in the middle. There are two musles side by side. So we go in the middle and just stretch it and we can enter inside inside the tummy it's like a balloon like structure like paper thin structure that walls off all the layers like a very thin cing film like structure we call it as peritoneum and inside that will be the intestines uterus bladder everything will be inside. So once we make a small cut in that cling film like structure called peritoneum. I can see the uterus but as soon as you see the uterus you cannot cut it because the bladder is like a fold in front of the uterus. So what we will do we will cut that ler also and separate the bladder away from the uterus then we make the cut on the uterus. So if you really count this is the seventh layer that's the uterus so once we cut the uterus then that's a bag of membranes and from there the baby comes out so these are seven steps"
