what is a good time? is there any major complications having c sections too close together? our DD is almost 4 mo, we are not ttc yet, but im not on any BC. and condoms are a pain. since im BF I dont get my period at all so no idea when I am ovulating. im worried that if i do get pregnant that it would be not healthy for my body with all the scar tissue healing, and also taking care of an infant. advice?
Re: how long did u wait to TTC after you CS??
My doctor didn't give us a timeframe but we let him know our plans and he was ok with them.
My sections were 23 months apart.

IVF #2: 11/12-12/12: ER: 20R, 20M, 16F, 4 Frosties; 5dt: 3 blasts, DS born 8/9/13
My OB said not to get pregnant for one year after c-section

I asked my Ob at my six week checkup and he said whenever I felt comfortable. This recommendation likely varies depending on the woman and her age/recovery from surgery/overall health so I think you should talk to your ob.
I had no problems being pregnant and caring for an infant. The scar tissue healing wasn't a factor and my second pregnancy was easier than my first. I think being pregnant with a toddler would have been a whole lot harder honestly.
I do think you should stop having unprotected sex and talk to your ob. It is possible to get pregnant while breastfeeding and it's not worth risking your health over.
we waited two years. My doc gave me the green light at 6 months PP, but if I wanted to try for a VBAC they wanted us to wait 18 months. We weren't ready until the 2 year mark.
