That is a question you should be asking your doctor as all women heal at a different pace. Be sure your body has had a chance to build-up before becoming pregnant. Good luck Marcy As soon as your dr clears you to resume normal activities. Of course then it will be nine months later...but you may have to have a c- section again. Answer Recent research suggest a woman should have at least 18 months in between deliveries if she wants to have a vbac.

As soon as you feel you are able to cope with another baby. With me it took 3 years, but some babies are very 'easy' and the Mom feels she can cope with another soon.

Research has shown that if the babies are less than 18 months apart they second baby is more likely to be pre-term. This does not affect all second babies but enough to be significant.

∙ 14y agoI had a c-section on April 20th last year via c-section and I am currently expecting my next child on May 4th of this year. It is safe to get pregnant any time but your body may have different reactions. Because the c-section was not that long ago, I often experience pain and stinging around the incision scar. It tends to be more bothersome the further along I get but it may not be as serious for you. other that that, there shouldn't be any problems.

If you are breast-feeding it can delay the return of ovulation for some time. While you can get pregnant any point after your c-section, doctors recommend some time in between to allow your c-section to heal. If you want to have a vaginal birth after c-section (vbac) you should have at least 18 months between deliveries.
