Hi all,
Im looking for some advice from ladies that have had 2 c-sections close together.
I had a baby last December '14 & im due another c section in January '16!

Im wondering how you managed your recovery after the birth? Especially how you coped managing a 1 year old & a new born after the surgery? Did you get help in the house etc?

Thanks in advance for your help

Does it have to be another c section?

I had a c section and a vaginal birth 14 months apart.

You'll manage obviously because you have to. Just have lots of help on hand. Batch cook meals in advance. Take it easy.

I had two with a similar gap, my 2nd was not a straight forward c-section and recovery for the two was more or less similar. I think keeping yourself as fit and healthy as you can during your pregnancy helps.
