Another person said to wait at least 6 weeks pp. My GP said to wait until my scar is the same...
Just after midnight on 2 November I had a lovely home birth for our second baby, a boy, who was a surprise. He was 12 days late and I was on the cusp of an induction (because I was so fed up being pregnant) when my waters went spontaneously waiting for a room to have them broken in!
