Hello ms. Nazibe,

I understand your concern. First of all, congratulations on your pregnancy. It is generally recommended that after a cesarean to wait at least six months before you fall pregnant again, ideally one year. Since you have a 10 month old already, and assuming you are at least 2 months pregnant, you are still beyond the 6 month danger mark. You should be fine, as long as you avoid extensive weight carrying, abrupt movements and intensive physical activity.

Wishing you an easy and safe pregnancy and all the best
