Second c-section scar

I'm having my second c-section this coming August..... And one thing that's recently crossed my mind is the scar/incision site. Will the Dr cut on the same line where my first c-section scar is or do they do a totally different cut making a new scar? I'd rather than cut over the previous scar so I don't have two but whatever they gotta do to get my DD out is fine! Anyone have any feedback on this, I'd really appreciate it!

    My second is almost exactly over the first one.

    Mine is almost the exact same. They cut a little farther horizontal to get him out but basically same spot

    I have two different ones. The second one is nearly healed (3.5 years in) but the first one (5.5 years) is still a red mess.

    My doctor looked at mine at my initial appointment and said "I can work with that", so I'm assuming it'll be close, if not exactly the same site.

    She cut my old one out completely and I have a less noticeable one this time around. The first was a middle of the night emergency c/s by a different MD. The second was scheduled and my OB noticed I scarred a lot and used a different type of suture that she removed three days later instead of the dissolvable ones I had the first time.

    I asked my OB, and she said she'll do it in the same spot.

    My OB was going to do my second right on my first, my when I went in to deliver I had a pimple in the incision so the did the second a few millimeters off. No biggie in the end.
