2nd pregnancy

[monique21]

Hi.. I have a 7 month old baby and just found out I'm expecting again.. is this dangerous?

I have had 3 children all c-sections my third child passed away at term due to an accident. After we made the choice to try again my doctor and I discussed in detail how long we should wait. My uterus during my last delivery was very thin and it had some scars from the prior sections. He felt it safe to try after 6 months even under these circumstances. We were pregnant by 7 months after our son was born. 17 weeks and all is going well. I imagine things will work out for you as well. Keep a positive attitude as things most often work out.

It is said that you should try to wait about a year after giving birth, before getting pregnant again, but it happens.  I got pregnant when one of mine was only 8 months old.  For most women, it turns out fine.  You will more than likely have a healthy pregnancy, providing that you don't have any health issues that you didn't mention.
