Apologies for the slight off-topicness...

A Mum has been asking me what I know about 'weak wombs' and not being
able to have more children as she's 'had to have 3 c-sections as she has
a weak womb'. And 'the hospital said I'd die, or the baby would if I get
pregnant again as I can't carry to term after three sections'. Yet
she's had no investigations of her womb at all. It's just that she's
had 3 c-sections, the subsequent 2 as she'd had 1, and 'everyone knows
the womb will rupture on the scar site'.

Can anyone point me in the direction of appropriate research? I know
nothing of this, apart from what I read here when people discuss when
others have been told they _have_ to have repeat c-sections. And I'd
like to be able to pass on up to date and appropriate references for
this mother. I've been up front with her and told her I'm not the person
to ask, but as I said, I'd like to have some reliable evidence based
research to present to her for her own reading. I'm not seeking an
'answer', just reliable and sound factual evidence (in either direction).

Many thanks

Morgan Gallagher
