Hi my dear,

I understand your concern.

Indeed, 5 months is too early after a C-section birth to start a new pregnancy; but not impossible.

I advise to consult with your gynecologist. At your age of pregnancy (4 weeks), misoprostol and mifepristone are 2 meds to use for termination after consulting with gynecologist.

All the best.
