1. I can not believe my baby is 6 months on the 26th :,)
2. When did everyone wait to get pregnant with #2?
3. Did anyone get pregnant at 6 months plans have a vbac? Or a fully successful pregnancy?

8 months post emergency c sec here! Me and my partner have been trying to conceive the past couple months, not got pregnant yet unfortunately! Guidelines say to wait 18 months due to risks, but to minimise that I'll probably opt for an elective c sec if vbac is too risky!

Ik my provider said to wait 18-24m to concieve again but I have also heard 18m between births and that some people on here have had luck with births even closer. We started trying around 8m pp. Concieved at 14m pp with 11 week loss. Concieved again 19m pp and im hoping for my vbac come june 28m pp. With it being less than the 18m gap I just would suggest finding a provider who will still support the vbac attempt. Obviously more time can allow for more healing and less chance of complications but I definitely was eager too postpartum.
Has anyone else got pregnant again since having their baby in December? Iām scared about such a close age gap

I havenāt experienced ANYYY painful braxton hicks during my pregnancy. absolutely 0! itās just been āoh thatās solidā and maybe just a bit harder to breathe. no pain or even discomfort, AT ALL!
I am kind of annoyed by this. because yes, itās nice. but I have never had a baby before. I feel like because Iāve experienced NO pain, itāll make labour feel even worse. if that makes sense? obviously even if youāve had painful braxton hicks, labour is still painful. but it probably isnāt AS bad as youāve experienced practice ones..you know?? so you know at least a little percent of what youāll be feeling/dealing with.
Iām just scared Iām COMPLETELY UNPREPARED for the pain. does anyone else feel the same?
