What are your worries OP? I had two c-sections 18 months apart and no one highlighted any concerns.

1st one was a very relaxed, but classed as an emergency, c-section and the second one planned.

I had the same timing after a planned section. Another section, babies 15 months apart. All was safe, no concerns raised. Wishing you well.

Think the worry is more about the c section scar due to getting pregnant so soon after. Is the pregnancy going to be ok throughout as I got told to not get pregnant til around 12 months after c section.

Thank you. My babies will be 13 months apart.

If it's any reassurance, no mention was made about the scar potentially failing, although I did have an extra 2 months on you.

The second section pregnancy put the scar under a lot of pressure as I carried a high level of fluid and the baby was 10lb 6oz.
