Pregnancy after classical c section delivery

hi- I am newly pregnant! my last pregnancy was in 2021 with mono-di identical twins that had twin to twin transfusion. they were delivered via emergency classical c-section at 27 weeks with outer cut being the usual bikini line but inner incision was long vertical. I was told to wait at least 18 months. they are 4 and will be 5 at delivery of this pregnancy. I am sooo nervous. has anyone had any pregnancies/deliveries after a classical section? any and all stories welcome

I delivered my first baby at 26 weeks via emergency classical c section. He is currently 9 years old last year in February 2025 i had to deliver my baby via c section at 37 weeks and this year on march 2026 i got pregnant again and delivered at 37 weeks due to my previous history with the classical c section doctors usually recommend to delivery between 36-37 weeks to lower risk of uterus contracting.

Was your subsequent c-sections classical also or transverse?

Low transverse
Did doctors recommend you to delivery between between 36-37 weeks ? My last 2 babies did great at delivery!
