Summary

Our hypothesis is that there is no difference in the healing process in those women who have a one- or two-layer uterine closure at the time of cesarean delivery.

Detailed description

We are recruiting women who are presenting for their first (primary) cesarean delivery. They will be randomized to one- or two-layer myometrial closure at the time of their cesarean delivery. Ultrasound will be used to serially assess the myometrial thickness and myometrial remodeling process.
