How soon after a c section is it safe to get pregnant again?
my dr told me 2 years to make sure everything healed correctly
If you're planning on a repeat c-section, it doesn't matter too much. Give the internal incision time to heal completely at least. For a VBAC, it's suggested to have at least 18-24mo between births.
For RCS, it doesn't really matter. If you want to have a TOLAC, you would have better chances of finding provider, if you have at least eighteen months (but many providers prefer two years) between the births.

Quoting FarmGirl2B:
I am no longer a candidate for TOLAC. I have a bicornate uterus, had to have a repeat c section because baby wasn't moving, and my labors don't progress. I also have had severe symphosis pubis dysfunction with all 3 of my pregnancies.
