I just found out I’m pregnant again 5 months postpartum. I had a c-section and my doctor is saying that it’s still healing. Carrying the pregnant might be dangerous. Has anyone else gotten pregnant shortly after giving birth + how did you process it? I’m feeling overwhelmed.

You’d just be considered high risk. And probably have more appointments or checks. But lots of people do it. And you’ll probably have to have another c section

You will need to be extremely mindful of any pain around your C Section scar, as sometimes pregnancy can cause some issues. At my work I seen many women come through in your situation, and were ok.

Is your dr trying to scare you into termination? If so, shame on them. Just like with any back to back pregnancies, whether delivered vaginally or c section, there was risks. However, both my MIL & SIL had "Irish twins". And all was well. I know its overwhelming.. even at 16months pp, when i found out i was pregnant with my 2nd, I was very overwhelmed but just take it one day at a time
6th November, 8lbs at 40+1🩷

Had a midwife appointment on Thursday when I was 28+5 weeks and bump was measuring at 32cm so they want me to have a growth scan. Terrified baby girl is going to be really big and I’ll have to have a c-section which is my worst fear! Has anyone else had this recently or had a growth scan? 😬
