pregnant 4 months after c section

So I just had a cesarean October of 2015, and lay night I found out I'm pregnant again! Based on my LMP, I'm 4w 5d. I know your supposed to wait 18 months to get pregnant again, but can someone tell me if this has happened to them. How did it go? Complications?    How was the surgery? Heal time any different? Pain level same or worse? Please tell me your stories! I'm so scared! I knowit will probably be alot to write anda little time consuming so Thanks in advance!!

I had my first c section April 2010, and found out I was pregnant 5 months later I had to have a c section with my second as well for personal medical issues. I had my second c section June 2011. My second c section took a little bit longer because my body apprentley likes to make a lot of scar tissue. But other then that ever thing went as planned. One thing about a scheduled c section is my hospital does a spinal block and for me it works better. Healing time was soooooo much better the second time, they use the same incision so all the felling is already gone, don't get me wrong it hurt but not like the first time and you just have to heal.

A friend of my me had a c section June if 2014. She was pregnant a few months later and had her second child by c section June of 2015. There were no complications with either pregnancy or delivery. I believe it may have taken a little longer to heal the second time around but I'm not sure. Try and not stress you will be okay.
