Baby wish, when?

Good afternoon everyone,

I just want to share something and am curious about your opinions. We are blessed with 2 kids (3 years and 7 months old). We really want a third, but officially I have to wait 1 year because the last one was a C-section.
Then I think.. waiting is sensible to follow the gynecologist's advice. But on the other hand, who knows how long it takes to get pregnant? Maybe start already.
And then there comes (perhaps my silly feeling) that I would love to have a summer baby. But this obviously can't be planned, you have to wait and hope it sticks within 3 months so you can calculate what the best months would be.
So 2 thoughts... are they very crazy? Help! Our feeling for a third is super strong, don't want to wait too long due to age.

    Hi
    I’d still recommend discussing this with your GP. Maybe they can do some preliminary tests to check if everything’s okay.
    Anyway, your health is really important too. You don’t want to end up regretting it later because your body couldn’t handle it, when you could’ve easily waited a bit longer.

    It's so sad to see that so many people read but don't share their experiences and/or opinions.
    I'd love to read responses from other moms (to be).

    Lieke, I'd wait and see for a bit; many members don't read the whole forum daily...

    That said, I agree with Franne. We're not experts; consult your GP. They have more knowledge about the subject and a much better insight into your situation. Although I personally wouldn't go for a third anyway (overpopulation).
