I have 3 living children who are perfectly healthy and had normal pregnancies except with my last it resulted in a c-section in Dec. of 2005 due to her being breach. My oldest was born in June of 02 and my second in July of 03 and then I got pregnant again less than 2 years after my second in March of 05. Now I know that this was normal for women to have many babies in the past as my Grandmother had 8 children one right after another but can having babies so close together cause miscarriages. I have also read on other sites that they are finding out previous c-sections are causing miscarriages as it has not been proved yet. I really do not want to wait to long. I am going to the Doctor for my checkup on Monday and I am going to ask these same questions but if anyone has any advise let me know. Thanks!

i read somewhere that getting pregnant before your child is 18 months old can be correlated with a higher miscarriage rate, but i think the increase was pretty small.

I had a friend that has 6 kids and they are pretty much around 1 to 2 years apart. She has never had any miscarriages, and as you said back in the older days women had tons of babies without any problems. I would give it at least 1 year after the birth of a child before I would try to get pregnant again. As for the c-section theory I had that because of the scarring that a c-section leaves behind it can be the cause of several different problems. But I wouldnt worry your fine Im sure. The dr. will give you peace of mind

BUT.... I feel like my visits are not what they use to be. He...

I gave my 2 week notice last Friday 13th. Now to join you fine people in a life of leisure and nothing else to do but to look out for myself....is it just me or does that sound pretty boring? My goal was to live to retire and I guess having to take early retirement because of health reasons wasn't exactly the way I had planned things. I just can't stay in that building that is reeking mildew...
