How long after C-Sect can you have another child?

Hi all, I had my first child via normal delivery with forceps more than 10 years ago, but until today, I am still afraid of the pain/process. I'm now already in my late 30s and pregnant with my 2nd child and want to give birth via c-sect. I wish to have another child if I can, but how long after c-sect can we get pregnant again? I don't wish to wait another 2-3 years as l'll be 40s. Any mummies got pregnant again within 1.5 years after c-sect?

I heard from my Gynae that after c-sect must wait till 18 months before conceiving again. It’s important to build up your body and let the layers of skin heal
