If your dr said so then I guess, but my dr has always told me 1YEAR. With this last one when i wanted to get pregnant with my 4th he told 18 months between my 3rd and 4th. I got pregnant after 4 years! I am now 14 weeks. 8 weeks seems very early to me, unless he thinks its going to take awhile for you to get pregnant, but what if it happened first try. I'd get a second opinion to be safe. good luck.

Hi - I was 36 with my first boy, a c-section, and no lie, I got pregnant the first time we resumed s_x a couple months later. It all went fine with number 2, and I was considered high risk as I was over 35, have hypothyroidism and had preeclampsia with number 1. I did have a second c-section and it went very smoothly. My boys' birthdays are 1 year and 10 days apart - "Irish twins." I'm now 39 and racing the clock like you to have #3 - been trying since number 2 turned 3 months; not a cycle to lose, you know? The only thing I'd be worried about is the actual having s_x that early after your c - sounds painful to me!

Hm, I got pregnant the second time 4 months after my first and my doctor wasn't concerned at all. Just as with anyone who had a c-section they preferred to schedule a second one a week before the due date.

Hello Kay101, how did your pregnancy go, are you still preggie? Did your doctor have any concerns at all? Mmm, did you incision hurt as your uterus and stomach grew?
