HELLO DEAR
I understand your problem, dera Evidence suggests that risks are lower for babies conceived between seven months and 17 months of the previous birth, or after five years.
Research has shown that it may be better for your baby, too. Compared with a longer gap, babies conceived within six months of a previous pregnancy are at a higher risk of: prematurity, low birth weight. A gap of at least 18 months will give you time to recover your energy and replenish the nutrients you lost during your previous pregnancy. You'll also have time to mentally and physically prepare yourself for getting pregnant again and having a new addition to the family.
THANKS
