How long after a C-section should I wait to have another baby?

You asked a really good question, you want to know how long you should wait before getting pregnant if you've had a C-section. And this is totally individual, and every doctor may give slightly different answers to this question. So it would be best to talk to your doctor, and based on your individual circumstances, they can give you the best response. But most experts recommend that women wait about 18 months before getting pregnant again, and this is just for normal vaginal deliveries. This is about the amount of time it takes for a woman's body to go back to normal, and for her to lose her pre-pregnancy weight so that she can go into the next pregnancy increasing her chances and the chances of her baby being happy and healthy during the pregnancy and for the delivery. So again, I would wait 18 months, plan on that, and then talk to your doctor about any specifics that are unique to you that might affect the length of time that you should wait. Good luck with everything, and if you have any other questions for me, feel free to ask them on our Facebook page, and recommend us to your friends and family too.

I have a question ?? I had my first child c section.., waited 4 years to have my second. Unfortunately, didn't get a vbac. However, during my second c section there was lots o pressure / pushing / pulling from the nurses towards my belly. Can you explain why might that be ? I was told that my baby didn't turn into the right position at the time. thank you!

For how long I should wait for me to have another baby a m 40 days and I lost my baby please I need your reply .I want to travel with pregnancy and I will not be with my husband

What if you had a stillborn? I wasn’t going to try for another one for a long time but I lost her at 37 weeks. I’m desperate for another baby but I had to have a c section. It’s taking a mental toll on me being told I need to wait a year and a half. I’m almost 4 months out from the c section. My OBGYN told me to wait 18 months between BIRTHS, so 9 months before trying again. I want to do a VBAC next time but I know I really have to wait the full 9 months to do that.
