Hi all. I was fortunate to get pregnant on my first three tries with my first three babies. I lost my first due to IUGR. I went on to have two boys via c-section. They are now 28 and 10 months old. I am trying to have one more baby and I am in a hurry because of my age being 34 and my husband 37. I dont understand why we are not able to make another one -- it has been our third try. I am disappointed and scared that the two boys are all I will have which is great--theyre wonderful but I had hoped to have more. I am wondering if there are other experiences like mine out there and if repeat c-section can cause infertlilty and if there is any advice for me? I will be seeing my dr next week but I dont think she will help me try to have another baby so soon after my 10 month old and the fact that I am trying for my 4th baby in 4 years.
Thanks!

It could be your age... or just a fluke thing that's happening. We got pregnant twice on the first try... the first one I m/c'd and then came my son. We started trying for a second baby and it took 21 months to get pregnant. Then with our third we got pregnant about 2 days in to trying (according to the temp. chart)... go figure!?!

With my first little girl we tried to get pregnant, and within 2 months we were pregnant. 9 months later we had a very healthy 9lb 1.5oz girl, via c section. About a year after her birth we decided we should start trying for another. 2.5 YEARS later NOTHING. So last summer at the age of 25, I decided I should be happy with what I have and I gave away/sold all of my baby furniture and clothes. We decided we were done trying. March of this year, my husband came home with a test, and told me that I had to take the test because HE thought i was pregnant. Honestly, I didnt want to see another negetive so it took him A LOT to convince me to take it. Wildly enough, it was positive. So almost 4 years after we started trying we are about to have our Second daughter. I dont know if it had n e thing to do with my first c section, perhaps it did. Ive just learned that old saying.. when you least expect it.. it will happen is TRUE! Good luck ladies! ~Kristin~
