Hi Salil,
Thanks for posting your query.
Pregnancy should be a planned phenomenon in today's world when we have so much access to health services.
It should be planned when a couple is physically, mentally, financially sound and have enough time to attend the responsibilities that the pregnancy and delivery delivers on you.
Typhoid is a major infection. It loads the body with toxins and taps the patients of nutrition and optimum health. I think give your wife time to recover before she can sustain the additional load of pregnancy. I think a three month's time with good care would be ideal.
I hope your query has been answered. I will be happy to solve your further queries. In case you are satisfied with my answer, please close the discussion and put a rating for it.
Regards,
