Yes, that is true that another c-section
birth can prevent tearing, but not always.
It depends upon the reason you had a
c-section the first time. Why did you have
a caesarian section for your first child?
I HAD A TEAR IN THE MEMBRANE I WAS LEAKING
WATER WITH LITTLE BLOOD, I HAD
CONTRACTIONS AT THE TIME BUT I NEVER
DIALTED.

Having one caesarian section doesn’t
necessairly mean that you will have a
second. The causes and conditions during
your first pregnancy (A TEAR IN THE
MEMBRANE, LEAKING WATER WITH A LITTLE
BLOOD, CONTRACTIONS BUT NO DILATION) may
not be present during a second delivery.
