If you experience abdominal pain, seek medical attention as soon as possible: a scarred uterus may rupture spontaneously in the late stages of pregnancy. When the uterus ruptures, abdominal pain of varying severity will occur. Sometimes, even if the abdominal pain is relatively mild, the uterus has already ruptured, so you must be vigilant.

Avoid abdominal pressure in the late pregnancy: To prevent the scar from cracking, you should also pay attention to protecting it and not squeezing it. In the late stages of pregnancy, you should avoid crowded places, do housework in moderation, sleep on your back or side, and have an adequate sexual life without putting pressure on your abdomen.

Pay attention to fetal movement: Fetal movement is the movement of the fetus in the uterus. The speed of fetal movement is an early indicator of whether the fetus is safe in the uterus. Normally during pregnancy there will be three to five fetal movements per hour or at least ten times a day. After a caesarean section, a scarred uterus with a slight rupture or placental abnormality can cause fetal death.

Precautions

The diet for the second child is better based on your own physical condition and doctor's advice. Regular check-ups and pregnancy gymnastics can be very helpful in having a second baby.
