Pregnant after Csection

I had a csection 7 weeks ago. I am worried about possibly being pregnant again despite using birth control. Will my doctor make me get an abortion or will I be able to carry the baby and have a repeat csection 10 months after my first csection?

I'm with maw, take a test before stressing yourself.
Doctors can't force an abortion on you and you wouldn't be the first to get pregnant so soon after, but you would very likely have to have another c section.

I'm on my third section my second was nearly 12 months ago I'm 28 weeks pregnant now ...they will not advise and abortion but will need to make you aware that you have a very real possibility of uterine rupture which means your scar may open and cause bleeding which can be fatal I was 5 months postpartum when I feel pregnant this time and even I must say my scar has on occasion been soar and feels like it's pulling and I've even been told I'm at risk of a rupture if not careful so your will be more so due to only being 7 weeks postpartum as your uterus swells it will pressure your scar just be careful

They cant force an abortion on you. It will be hard on your body and since your csection is so new you probably would need another csection. I think you need to heal for a over a year for a vbac but im not sure ive never had a csection. But fond out if your even pregnant first.

Find out if you're actually pregnant first and go from there.
