Q: Please
ma, I gave birth through operation six months ago; I would like to know the
spacing to give before conceiving again. Thanks!

A: Interesting
question! And a good one too!:DI smile because I had two babies in
two consecutive years (2004 and 2005)! They are really a year and 9 months
apart but it was kinda embarrassing when people pointed that I practically had
them back to back:D

Truth is, when you and hubby choose to have children is totally
up to you but just like everything else in life, there are choices we make that
may not be optimal in the long term. Having children at very close intervals
(less than one and a half to two years) puts both mother and baby at risk.

For mum, she would not have had enough time to build back her
stock of nutrients like iron and folate. Some studies…
