Pregnancy after c section
What time scale did everyone get pregnant again after a c section?
I know the doc said they recommend eating at least a year to 18 months but it took 4 years to get pregnant the first time after being told we could not conceive naturally so not wanting to stop it happening knowing it could take a very long time again but also worried.

3 months I was pregnant again
9 months post partum for me but it only took a month and my first took quite a bit longer to fall pregnant with x
4 months & I got pregnant
Took me 18 months
10 months after my c section. But took us 4 years to get pregnant the first time.
Currently 8 months post emergency c sec and my partner and I have decided to try again, screw waiting 18 months š I only want 2 children and close together. My son doesnt sleep so id rather carry on the sleep deprivation instead of at some point being able to sleep again before losing it š
There is 13months between my Daughters.
So i was about 3-4 months postpartum.
Both planned c-sections.
No complications at all.
My scar healed amazingly after both ā¤ļø
I know they dont recommend that close of course.
My second Daughter is 2 1/2 & we are considering trying for our third & last baby soon-ish
Which will most likely be another c-section.
I had preeclampsia with my first, then my second i had hypertension & gestational diabetes.
I had extra scans with both & was consultant lead x
It was a little over 13 months when I got pregnant again
11 months but 17 between them
6 months later I got pregnant but ended up losing the baby
5 months pp with my second baby. And 9 months pp with my third!
I got pregnant 11 months after my first section, and then 16 month after my second. I have had complications in all my pregnancies but not caused by spacing. Been trying to get pregnant now for a year so whenever I have my next baby it will be the biggest gap.

Emergency C-Section
Hey mums, 20 days post emergency c section after a failed induction at 39 weeks. I experienced placental abruption and then developed sepsis after birth spent 5 days in hospital in total.
I was in so much pain and experienced a lot of trauma from the c-section including being on oxygen etc. Did anyone else experience anything similar and how did you find recovery? Itās been toughš©µ

Different movement at 28 weeks
Looking for anyone whoās had a similar experience! Up until now my baby has been very active through the day with strong punches and kicks but over the past 48 hours, the movements have changed to more gentle rolls and bulges. I also think heās sitting low as Iāve been feeling pressure and some aching down there. Would appreciate hearing if anyoneās had anything similar!

Gender reveal
Hi guys. Had my anamoly scan today. They informed it will be baby girl. But they checked once and then confirmed. But is there any chance it could be wrong?
Though I am happy to have a girl and preferred to have girl but I wasnāt convinced by my midwife as she checked only onceš«£

Genuinely terrified
This is my second baby and I had a traumatic birth with my first Iām now 4 days overdue and I had a growth scan at 39+6 and babyās predicted weight was around 8lbs 15oz, Iāve now been told Iām at greater risk of shoulder dystocia, an anal tear and or needing another episiotomy. They canāt book me in for a c section but also not sure if thatās what I want, Iām already 2cm dilated when I had my sweep but donāt know if my body isnāt naturally going into labour as Iām so scared.

Deep kicking
Has anyone experienced their baby kicking but itās so low and deep it literally feels like itās in your vagina? Itās such a strange, deep feeling unlike the feeling of the kicks in your tummy.
