Hi ladies. I've been lurking on this board since before DS was born and I'm hoping to join you at some point. So my question is for the mommas who had c/s. My doctor told me at my 6wk appt that we should wait a year to get pregnant. This didn't make myself or DH very happy since we were planning to get pregnant again soon. So was anyone else told this or is my dr just saying this??
Re: Question...
I was never told anything after my first pregnancy and I came out with 2u1.
After DSs delivery (a repeat c-section) I was told I needed to wait a year to let my uterus recover. Also the scar tissue needs to heal inside because the placenta can attach to the the scar and some women have had to have hysterectomies from it.

My doc didn't say either way. I also didn't ask.
We started trying for #2 when #1 was 4 months, and we got pregnant when #1 was 6 months.
We started trying for #3 when #2 was 2 months, and we got pregnant when #2 was 7 months.
