I ended up with an emergency c section. Since reading around the topic looks like c section can be linked to secondary infertility, and now worried that it will be difficult to conceive number 2. Any one had this concern / any reassuring stories
? Thanks :)

I had a very traumatic emergency c-section with my first. Only took me 6 months to conceive my 2nd.

i had an emergency section with my first, and took 2 months to conceive my second☺️

I did not have an emergency c-section for my 1st. But I didn’t progress. I was given options & opted for a c-section.
I conceived our 2nd at 13m PP, on the “first” try.
Our 3rd… I can’t remember what was happening then. But it didn’t take too long, I don’t think.

We surprise conceived our second baby the day after my sons first birthday - was something I worried about as well but happened without us even trying 😌

I conceived straightaway after my c section

Had an emergency c section first pregnancy. Then fell pregnant first cycle of trying with our second 🙂

I've had 3 c sections and first one was emergency

I had a planned one not emergency but we got pregnant the first time not preventing, we weren’t actively trying. We “tried” for 16 months with our first baby.

I’ve read what you were and it’s not very common and you’d likely know if you have the scar defect. It’s also treatable.
I know someone who has had four pregnancies and two sections, and seen many posts from women falling pregnant quickly after a section.
If you have the defect, lap surgery could fix it and pregnancy isn’t impossible. Go get an ultrasound after your period stops and you’ll know.

My friend had a c section, got pregnant again a year after and has just recently had a vaginal birth
