Pregnancy too soon after caesarian delivery

I delivered my baby last Sept. 2, 2010 through Caesarian section, I knew the fact that we need to wait at least to make baby again..But I found out that I'm 2mos. 3 weeks pregnant again..Now,I'm scared of our condition that It might be risky..
Can I hear your concern regarding this matter and what do I need to do?..Thanks..

Since you're already over 2 months I would assume you've seen a doctor? What have they told you? If you want to attempt a vaginal birth after cesarean (VBAC) as an above commenter mentioned you may not meet the requirements as it is so soon after a cesarean delivery.

Definitely address these concerns with your doctor.

When I had my c-section, my doctor told us to wait 1year before trying for another baby.  I think there are risks to getting pregnant sooner.  I'd make a dr appointment asap.

Ive never had a c-section but i do know your growing tummy can put pressure on the scar and its still kinda fresh. I dont think you would be able to have v-bac (but again im not a doctor) because your scar hasnt had enough time to heal properly. im not sure what other risks, i know if you have multiple c-sections there can be hemorraging at the time of delivery because of the scar tissue. i would talk to my doctor but im sure you should be fine, just take it easy if you feel uncomfortable. good luck!
