2u2 and repeat c/s

So, we went to the drug store to buy pg tests this weekend because we thought I was pg (used a condom EVERY time, but AF was late).  It turned out that I'm not, but I really started to freak out!  My OB and all the rest of the stuff I've read said that I have to wait until DS is a year.  

Have any of you had repeat c/s with your 2u2?  How far apart were their births?

    my ob said i could get pg anytime if i was doing a repeat c/s.  if i wanted a vbac, she rec'd waiting 12-18mo to get pg.

    i got pg when ds1 was 8mo and never had any complications due to c/s.

    I have kids 18 and 19 months apart. Basically 3 c-sections in 3 years. No issues, and my OB told me that I could get PG whenever DH and I wanted. She didn't give me a time frame of waiting.

    My OB told us to wait til DD was a year old before trying after our c-section.  We ended up getting pregnant when DD was 6months old.  Everything went fine with my pregnancy and the doctor was even willing to let me try to VBAC if that is what I really wanted.  I ended just getting a repeat c-section because I have a funnel shaped pelvis making it really hard if not impossible for my LO to descend.  My doctor didn't give any recommendations this time on how long we wait to try for #3 but we plan on waiting a while so I didn't ask.

    I had 3 c/s's in 28 months.  My OB had no concerns and I could have tried for a VBAC with #2.

    My c-sections will be 14 months apart and my dr isn't concerned since I'm doing the repeat. It's more of an issue if you want to try VBAC.

    My 2nd c/s was 16.5 months after my 1st c/s.  My OB said it was fine to get pregnant as soon as I wanted to, and that some research suggests c/s are safer/easier to recover from when spaced close together.
