I gave birth on April 7th 09 semi c-sec.. how long must i wait before i can get pregnant again? how long do i have to wait for the wound to totally heal or i can just go ahead with it? and how long does it take for the womb to be safe to carry another child again?

Preferable one to two years - this depends on the incision that was made plus your overall health. Generally, once a woman has gone for a c-sec, it's hard to go back to natural delivery.

Even for natural delivery, doctors would advise you not to get pregnant too soon after your previous pregnancy as your body needs time to recover. It takes nine months to bring a baby into the world and your body, logically, will need at least a couple of months to go back to proper condition and shape.

I'm actually planning to have my next baby in two year's time - that way, the gap isn't too big and I would have recovered sufficiently from this pregnancy to give my best again to my next child. :)
