  • if youre looking at a vbac, it is best to wait 18 months but not mandatory.
  • I wuld wait atleast a year I got wen my baby was 6 months old (so not planned lol ) an it was my worse pregnancy my body just hurt all the time me an my family thinks I got pregnant to fast an it was hard on my body.
  • My Dr told me that they suggest waiting at LEAST a year, preferably 18months. I for pregnant when my son was 9mths old, not planned, and this pregnancy has been a lot worse! My body just hurts all the time :/

    Congratulations on your son! I had a c-section on 10/25 too!!

    With my first c-section my OB told me my deliveries should be 18 months a part. So, we could have started trying when she was 9 months old. I had the itch for another baby around that time, but we decided to wait. We started trying for #2 when #1 was 11 months old. I got pregnant on her 1st Birthday. So far it's been great having 2 under 2 years old...challenging, but great. I would talk to your OB at your 6 week appointment.
