Wait ttc after c-section?
I read on another post that someone had been advised to wait 12-18 months before ttc after a c-section and I wondered if anyone else had been told this, or any other information. We're not thinking about ttc yet, our LO is only a month old but if we do need to wait so long, it could be years before we have another and at 38, I don't have time on my side.
Were you advised to wait before ttc after your c-section? Would appreciate your comments, thanks xx

Even if you have a normal birth you should still wait a year for yr body to recover (apparantly) but my friend had 2 c-secs and waited 10 months to concieve no probs

but i concived our second DD 16 weeks after i had my first DD by section i never had any problems at all and during my 2nd section they mentioned how brilliant the scaring inside was and that there was no adeshions!
so i think its a personal choice with how long you want to wait. hope this helps!!
there is 12months and 19days between my girls.

There are 14 months between my 2 boys and both were by c section. I had no problems at all and a better pregnancy second time round.
A midwife I spoke to said the 2 years advice is old information and things have moved on from then, and there is no bigger risk if you have another baby relatively soon after the first.
