You have come to the right place! I have had 2 c-sections, one vbac and one vbac2c and have 6 children. Some of the answers really depend on how well you respond to surgery and how strong you are, and that is really hard for me to say. Please do follow the advice of your doctors, but I will say in GENERAL that I have heard doctors say that you need at least a year for your incision to heal well enough to endure another pregnancy/delivery to avoid rupture. Many hosptials will not do VBACs because of malpractice, but you can try for one depending on the reasons why you had yours first C-section. You haven't given me enough information on that. 2 years is probably the ideal for many doctors.

As for having sex, all doctors advise 4 weeks before having sex, and many at least 6 weeks. Believe me when I say you will not want to do it before 6 weeks. It can be extremely painful to do it even after that time, so please give yourself as much time to heal as possible. I don' think I need to tell you that C-sections are major surgery and like being hit with a semi. You will not be allowed to lift anything unnecessarily over 10 lbs (which means you only pick up the baby) for 6 weeks.

If you need more information, you can PM me or message me here for more information on specific questions.

Hey mominashoe...Thanks for that information!

As for my c-section, i just had it 2 weeks ago but unfortunately my baby didn't make it...he died inside of me due to strangulated umbilical cord, he was then 31 weeks. That's why right now...I am so eager and wanted badly to have another baby, to ease the pain of losing our first angel.

Well..we really need to wait another to year to have another one and try to have vbac...hopefully!

For sex, it's advised to wait 6 weeks because of infection and the fact that most woman bleed that long. I did it 5 weeks after my section.

As for getting pregnant, the longer you wait (although not longer than 5 years I think) the better your chances for a successful VBAC. I am accuanted with a woman who got pregnant about 6 weeks after her very unnessecary CS (Her son died shortly after birth). She went on to have an HBAC exactly 43 weeks later.

Best of luck!

I am so sorry for your loss! That must be so hard to go through. I know you do want a baby badly, but it will take time for you to heal as we talked about before, and also you might want to get your maternal stores up to par again as well. The best of luck with your next baby making

i'm very sorry for the loss of your baby
