For some reason I'm thinking that if you have a c-section you are taking the risk of not being able to concieve again. I already had #1, but TTC #2. I've been trying now for 3 months. #1 was soo easy to concieve. I feel guilty for even talking about this because I see that some women on here have been trying for over 20 months to get pregnant! Good luck to all of you TTC.

I don't think it does, at least I've never heard that. I can tell you my experience:
I immediately got pregnant with #1, had an emergency C-section. It then took me 3 months to get pregnant with #2, (scheduled c-section), then it took me 5 months to get pregnant with #3, again a c-section.
I think the reason it seems harder is because you're really focused on it now, and you're probably more stressed out any given day since you have a baby/toddler now. Unless something has changed to either you or your hubby, you shouldn't have trouble getting pregnant, just be patient and hang in there. :)

It can and I found that out the hard way. I had a c-section with #1 (breach), #2 were twins supposed to be VBAC but failed to dilate...they were a surrogacy via IVF so doesn't really count on how hard it was to get pregnant, #3 I did get pregnant the 1st month after going off the pill and he was an emergency c-section almost 2 years ago. Just found out that my uterine lining is destroyed from my c-sections...they basically clean you out like a pumkin post delivery and can sometimes "scrape" too hard. They said that during one of mine most likely with the twins happened and then after having one more my linng is no longer pink and fluffy. Instead it's white and webby and the likelihood that an embryo will be able to implant in it is slim to none.

Just anecdotally, my wife had two C Sections. The 2nd pregnancy occurred about 3 or 4 weeks after I ditched the condoms. We didn't find it any more diffiuclt than the first time.
3 months isn't very long, especially since there are relatively small windows of optimal fertility.

i don't think so, i have had 3 c-sections and i have had no problems getting pregnant with any of my children i usually got pregnant the first month i was trying in.
Jilldaniel that website is based on the worst case senarios but its not typically known for all those things to happen.
Please keep in mind that if you are healthy to begin with and you have a healthy diet there should be no complications.

confident, it incredibly is part result that could ensue because of the fact of an abortion. Scar tissue interior the uterus could reason project for yet another being pregnant, and your threat of miscarriage is likewise greater. I dont desire to scare you yet you ought to be attentive to the reality. Infertility is led to by potential of your egss no longer maturing and an abortion does not reason this. in case you do become pregnant its important which you tell your OBGYN surgeon your previous abortion, so they're conscious and could help dodge any issues in a destiny preganacy.
