    Frostie Baby and When to

    I know this may seem a weird time for me to put this question out there and I know I am blessed with my little girl. However I feel she has a sibling waiting in forstie baby.

    For most of you who know my journey this is our first frostie in 2 years.

    I know I need to leave 12mths between CS there a 2 things moving me forward they found some burnt out endo during the CS and DH is 56 this year

    So my question is October too soon?

    Hi hun,

    I'm not a LTTTC'er... but just my opinion is that if October comes round and it feels right for you then just run with it... Only you and your DH will know if it is time or not.

    With the c/s I think they say 18 months between, so they reckon 9 months before TTC. BUT (non-medical person giving advice) I heard that apparently it only takes 3 months before the wound is fully healed, so I can't see why October would be too early.

    Hey TL.

    Hope all is going well with you and Charlotte.

    I too am very keen to try as soon as possible for a sibling for my darling Asher.

    My ob told me to wait at least 6mths before we start TTC for the CS scars to heal properly. At this point I'm thinking Feb next year - so there would be 18mths between them if we get our BFP straight away.

    I understand the desire to get things rolling again as there are no guarantee's on how long it will take to get that BFP. The only thing is that you need to be sure that you are healed and ready to carry another little human safely to term. If you feel that in Oct - I say go for it.

    Actually the 18 months recommended between births is only if you are going for a VBAC.

    You can fall pregnant after 3 months from your last c-section as the scar is healed then (according to my OB) if you are planning a repeat c-section.

    I say go for it if the time feels right honey!

    I was going to say my Ob's office said pretty much as the same as Mel. So October would sound good to me if that is when you are ready... xo

    Yep I heard the same as Mel, 12 months between deliveries if it's going to be a repeat c/s.
