So I am thinking we will try for another baby.
My LO is only 3 1/2 months but I'm trying to plan this because I want to be done with TTC/pregnancy and etc. by the time I'm 33 or so. I will be 30 next month.
I had a rough labor, LO was in a transverse position after supposedly being head down, labor for 31 hours, infection, etc. emergency c section due to my high fever and her distress on monitor.
We also had a rough time with colic, CMPI and MSPI. It has not been easy needless to say. WE had to stop nursing at 6 weeks and I'm still feeling immense guilt and also guilt over the c-section and what I felt was a delayed bond, although now we are so tight, her tummy is better and she loves me to the exclusion of everyone else, it seems
My question is how long should I space the pregnancies in order to have the best chances for a VBAC? I'm petrified of having another c-section.
I know TTC does not always go to plan and I don't want to wait too long but at the same time I know my body is still not anywhere near normal. I'd also like to have breastfeeding success with my 2nd (as long as they don't have the same allergies I guess) and I'm just nervous about the whole thing
thanks ladies
