Can’t get pregnant after having a c section

I need help!!!
has any of you struggled to get pregnant after having a c section?
I’ve read a few comments on here that have said they’ve not got pregnant since having a c section? And now I am panicking. I was not told this by health professionals before I had my section? And surely that’s a massive thing to ask especially if you are looking to have more children in the future??

I think there are risks re implantation in scar tissue but in terms of actual conception the surgery shouldn't have an impact at all.

I've been pregnant twice since my first c-section. Both conceived within 3 months of TTC. Of my other mum friends who have had c-sections all have gone on to have additional children since the section.
