I'm lucky enough to have two DC's but we would like a third. Second DC is 5 months (we've always wanted three it's not the post pregnancy hormones!) and there is a two year gap with DC1. We were extremely lucky in conceiving in under 3 months of TTC for both.
Issue is I am forty in a few months, and have had two c sections, first was technically elective second was technically emergency, although neither I or baby was in distress was very similar to the elective.
We were planning on waiting another 6 months is so, so possible minimum age gap of 20 months at least. However speaking to some friends they have been told to start trying asap. Obviously there situAtions have been different (eg longer to conceive, real emergency c sections) but it has made me question my thinking and I wondered what others would do or whether you would seek medical advice ?
