Mothers with Rhesus negative blood group needs to take RHOGAM, to protect against haemolytic disease in their newborns with Rhesus positive blood group
Have u had vaginal delivery before?
If yes u can deliver,the midwife needs to guard your perineum well.
Contractions are natural physiological process but it can be facilitated,if ur physician/midwife assement are adequate.

Exclusive breastfeeding mothers sometimes experience a delay in their period after childbirth and Period might be irregular in the first few months too
Anti D injection otherwise called Rhogam is for Rhesus negative women WITHIN THE FIRST 72 HOURS OF DELIVERING A RHESUS POSITIVE baby to prevent jaundice and other problems in the next baby. It is not usually given to pregnant women but after delivery or pregnancy loss.
After 6months
I don't think you should worry yet. The truth is that it can take a while for the cycle to be totally regular again. Some women also experience a heavy period after C-section, while others have a lighter-than-normal flow
Especially in the months immediately after giving birth, it is common to have irregular periods...Especially for breastfeeding mothers... Even in women who are not breastfeeding, periods may be irregular, as the body takes time to recover from pregnancy and childbirth. Over time, menstruation will return to its usual pattern.
Regurgitation after feed is called gastroesophageal reflux in babies,Just make sure your baby is well breastfed
So many happy and wonder-filled times ahead for you…congratulations

Many women who have had a cesarean section (or C-section) with their first pregnancy are interested in a vaginal delivery for their second or later births. For years, women who'd had a C-section were encouraged to skip vaginal deliveries altogether and schedule C-sections for all future births.
But these days, a vaginal birth after cesarean (or VBAC) is considered a safe option for many women and their babies. And, with a vaginal delivery, you can come home sooner and recover quicker.
The reason for your first C-section, the type of incision made on your uterus, and other factors in your medical history will determine whether or not you can have a VBAC:
A transverse incision (also known as a horizontal incision) cuts across the lower, thinner part of the uterus. It is used during most C-sections and makes a VBAC much more likely.
A vertical incision cuts up and down through the uterine muscles that strongly contract during labor, and is riskier for a VBAC because it might cause uterine rupture (a tear in the uterine muscle).

Its possible especially if u are still breastfeeding ur baby. But if u are not, go and see a gynaecologist, it maybe due to high prolactin level which refuses to go down after u weaned ur baby.
Nothing to worry about unless she/he feels uncomfortable or unease while doing it .
Hmmm, not to scare you nor deceive you, it is painful. But you'll forget the pain immediately you see and hold the beautiful soul you convey to the world. The overwhelming feeling of motherhood supersede all form of pain. It is well mam, focus on the joy at the end not the labour pain of short period
Congratulations
