    Oh lady - I wouldn't take the chance. Like Murphys Law you might fall as soon as you decide not to bother.

    Especially if you have concerns about another c/sect so soon. Do not, repeat do NOT rely on breastfeeding!

    That's what I was thinking LuLu, as soon as we leave it to chance Murphy's law will bite us in the bum! Had my VBAC been successful I would have left it to chance & had we ended up with #2 & #3 close together then so be it, but now I don't want to risk rupture or any of the other complications due to having a pregnancy before my wound has fully healed.

    Looks like condoms might be on the shopping list this week LOL!

    Well whilst there is sperm there is a chance in essence, slim as it may be.

    My personal feeling is that there is a great chance of oopsie pg where the issue relates to endo or cycle issues. When the issue relates to sperm (especially the more severe cases) then I'd say the chances of oopsie pg are relatively low. But anything is a possibility....

    DOnt know how relevent this is but thought i'd share

    My DH's uncle and DW had been trying for 12yrs to concieve with no luck. They had several tries at IVF and everything else possible iykwim- they had no luck. In the end they went through surrogacy. When there new baby was 6wks old they found out they were 8 wks pg. Needless to say after been told of having virtually no chance at falling naturally they did. They now have 2 beautiful DD's only 8 months apart. Talk about Murpheys Law.

    Sarah my parents previous neighbours ended up PG with a whoopsie baby when their IVF triplets were 6 months old.

    They also had a 4yo daughter who was conceived with IVF after a 10 year journey also so they didn't think it was possible for them to conceive!

    Yep 5 kidlets under 4! What a supermum!

    You need to put them somewhere else if you want them to work
