The answer

The preponderant opinion among scholars is the permissibility of abortion within the first forty days if there is an excuse, a benefit, or to avert an anticipated harm. Therefore, if doctors determine that the continuation of the pregnancy would cause harm to the questioner because she recently gave birth via C-section, then there is no blame upon her in this regard.
