With your hip problem they are likely going to want you to have a c-section again. Not many doctors would be willing to risk you getting a permanent injury that could get them sued. (even if you would have no intention of that, doctors rarely take any chances)

I've heard that some women have to have a c-section again if they've already had one before, but obviously is not the case for everyone. With the issues you mentioned, it sounds like c section might be the preferred way to go for you and the little one, but only your doc can really make that call in the end.
