My first one is almost 2 now and we are thinking of planning the next baby. Just not sure if there is a right gap to keep, body bhi thoda recover hua hai or not who knows. Those with 2 kids pls share what gap u kept.
I'm still pregnant with my first and already wondering about this! Is it really tough to manage two toddlers together if the gap is too small? I'd love to know what others think about the ideal age gap.
Haha, as a mom of twins, I got two in one go, so no gap choice for me! But seriously, wait until your first kid is sleeping through the night, otherwise you will lose your mind with two babies crying.
Medically, doctors suggest waiting at least 18 to 24 months before trying for a second baby. This gives your body and uterus enough time to fully heal and replenish all lost nutrients. So plan accordingly for a healthy next pregnancy.
Oh my, planning a second one is so stressful to think about! What if the first one feels ignored, or what if my body can't handle the strain again so soon? Definitely talk to your gynac to see if your body is ready before taking the decision.
Yaar honestly, do it when you feel mentally and physically ready! Don't stress too much about the perfect gap, some love a short gap and some wait 4 years. Just ensure your health is back on track first.
I'm still trying for my first, but my elder sister waited until her first child was 3 years old. She felt that was a good time as the first one became slightly independent. Wishing you all the best for your family planning.
My MIL wanted me to plan the second one immediately so they could grow up together and she could help while she has energy. But I waited 2 years to let my body heal properly. Take your family's help but decide what fits your health.
Make sure your body has fully recovered, especially if you had issues like high sugar or blood pressure in your first pregnancy. Eating right and getting your blood reports normal is so important before you start trying again.
