I didn't have a c-section personally so i'm not able to help a huge amount on that topic. However, I do know that there are a couple of ladies here who got pregnant soon after having a c-section and they were monitored more closely in the second pregnancy because of the risk of (i think) uterine rupture. While it's not generally advised for a woman to get pregnant so soon after a c-section (or a vaginal birth for that matter), plenty of women find themselves in your situation and i'm sure that as long as you ensure you are receiving proper medical care then you can have a safe pregnancy.

You really need to go and speak to your doctor so he/she can run through the risks with you. Try not to panic - you can do this if you want to!

Maybe you should of been more careful, and you wouldnt have this problem right now.

i agree with dalicia.Well,all you can do is accept it.I have a 7 month old baby boy,and I thought I was in that same situation months ago.Thankfully it wasn't true.Its really hard raising at child at this age.And im on 16.Are you on birth control or anything?

In terms of your body, I can't imagine it being a huge danger to you- you'll have to check with your doctor of course, but i'm thinking probably the worst thing that would happen would be they'd want you to go c-section again.
There's alot to be said for having kids close together.
Keep in mind, if you are just finding out you are pregnant now, it'll be the best part of a year before you actually have two children.
Sure, it'll be hard, but one's hard anyway!
The second child is not as expensive as the first either, because you already have most of the stuff you'll need- the big things at least.

Besides, the'll both be in school in about 5 years time. Think about that- you'll be free to work more hours or do more study then, instead of having one in school, and still needing to arrange care, or be home for another little one.
Plus- unless of course you have more- you'll be finished with "baby stuff" (nappies, feeds, night wakings, toilet training) in probably 4 years, instead of having it all done with one, and going "back there" for another.
