how safe is it to fall preg 3 months after a c seation

I'm not entirely sure "safewise" but after my c/s back in aug 08 i got told to give my body a break of at least 12 months because it does take sometime for all the muscle and everything to heal

People do it but the Gyno's I work with strongly advise waiting 6months after your first and second C/S before ttc again. The more c/s you have the longer they advise women to wait before trying again. I guess its to aid healing the extra time.

Your scar is fully healed 3 months after birth. It doesn't get stronger any time past that - all the healing its ever going to do is in that time. My sister got pregnant 3 months after a csection and she was fine.

(btw, this info was told to me by an OB, and I read it in a birth book -so it must be true.. hehe)

I have a friend who's last 2 children are 10 months apart. Both were c-sections.

I was told at my 6 week check up that anytime my body was able to make a baby (i.e. ovulating) then it was fine to get pg again. There was no waiting period. I had lots of complications with my c-section too so I was expecting to be told I had to wait a while.
