i had mine c- section on feb 16 2010 and my doc told me to waite for a year before i started trying for another one.
Thanks a lot Clysta. Thank you muny887. Mean while I had consulted 2 different doc's. one said - wait for a year atleast and the other said wait until you get 6 regular MC's.
It is recommended at least one year or more, not just for healing of the body but for your safety during the next pregnancy/delivery.With c-sections you have the potential for scarring inside the body that can make the next delivery difficult depending on how much scarring as well as a chance for seperation during pregnancy and or delivery. If your uterus binds to your placenta it then can turn into a serious situation.
Thank you for the answer. Did any one face the serious situation u said. can you be more clear on the matter u said
(scarring inside can make the next delivery difficult depending on how much scarring as well as a chance for separation during pregnancy and or delivery. If your uterus binds to your placenta it then can turn into a serious situation. )
SEPARATION- not clear to me , what separation stitches of uterus or what?
Uterus Binding to placenta- how does this happen when placenta itself would be attached to uterus. Is it when uterus is not healed properly n getting pregnant causes that binding.
I'm really worried and at the same time scared coz I have lost my first baby.
Now a days I feel abdominal pain during my periods which i never felt prior to my C-section. My periods started soon after one month of the c-sec'n. I do not mind delaying my next pregnancy to avoid risks.
Thanks again for the time.
Scar tissue naturally builds up. I have a 3 inch incision from an IUD removal surgery and have scar tissue all along there. It's just with more and more c-sections more will accumulate making it more difficult. As for other complications, most are very low and usually only happen if you get pregnant right after you had a c-section. For example, I know someone who got pregnant 4 weeks after she had her c-section and hemorrhaged on the operating table. She pulled through, but required tons of transfusions. What was your first c-section for? Was it medically necessary, or elective.
