Pregnant 2nd time after 15 months of gap
I have had a healthy 1st pregnancy. It was C-section. My daughter is 15 months old. I am 5 weeks pregnant again. Is it too early to get pregnant again? Will my 2nd pregnancy be affected as the interval between 2 pregnancies is less. I have heard there should be a gap of 2-3 years after C-section if planning for 2nd child. I am worried. Will there be any complications in my current pregnancy as the interval is too less between two pregnancies? Do i need to terminate this pregnancy? Please guide. Thank you!

Ideal duration should be at least 2 yrs. Ideally it should be 3 yrs. Considering the age(32 yrs) you can plan after 2 yrs of first LSCS.
Now since you are pregnant right now, decision rests upon you. Your concerned gynaecologist will support and help in your decision.

15 months interval is not a problem. If you wish you have a second child please continue with this pregnancy. Your doctor can prescribe you additional supplements to enhance baby growth & maintain your body reserves as well..
Whether this will be a normal or a C section only the conditions that come up during the progress of your pregnancy will determine.
All the best.
Next Steps
See a gynaecologist to check viability of your pregnancy.
