I have had 3 c-sections due to gestational diabetes. My last section was 5mths ago. At the time of the section I asked to have my tubes tied. While in surgery the Dr. said they couldnt do it because there was too much scar tissue. However, I was not told a single thing about getting pregnant again or what affect it would have on my body or if the scar tissue was too severe to have another section or anything like that. Now, 5mth after asking to never have children again i am thrilled to say I am glad that I have so much scar tissue because my husband and I are discussing having one more baby. I guess my questions are, has anyone ever gone through something similar? How long is an appropriate amount of time to wait to start trying? (I was told 2yrs 14yrs ago with my daughter) I guess I should mention that each of my sections were almost 7yrs apart. Did anyone have difficulty carrying your next pregnancy? I guess I am just scared about the complications that might come with trying again soon afer and with the scar tissue. Any advise would be great! Oh and please don"t say I need to talk to a DR. We really arent at that point yet. Just talking about it for now.
 
Well I'm pregnant with my 4th. This will also be my 4th section. My first 3 are all 15 months apart.

I've never heard of there being too much scar tissue to do a tubal, especially seeing that your scar tissue is on your uterus not your Fallopian tubes.

Too much scar tissue isn't a good thing. Scar tissue can actually prevent you from becoming pregnant or having a successful pregnancy as it can make it difficult for the egg to implant.

I'd suggest talking to your doctor about things. 2 years is generally the rule of thumb btwn sections. But it certainly is possible to have more then 3 sections!
