According to doctors, this is the ideal difference between the first and second child

If you just had your first child... Wait a little longer to plan your second. Remember all those sleepless nights and sacrifices you made for the first child. After you recover from all this it is time to think about a second child.

According to a new study from the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention, nearly a third of women have their children too close in age.

Medical experts recommend that mothers wait a minimum of 18 months before becoming pregnant again. They say that the ideal age difference between children should be about 2.25 years. Despite the fact that a third of mothers give birth at a close margin according to researchers it is important for women to take their time to fully recover and their body to return to a normal state.

Experts have also found that all mothers who become pregnant within a year are more likely to give birth prematurely.

Above all, there is also a risk that when he grows up he will have behavioral problems. Mothers in the UK leave an average age gap of 3 years and 8 months to their children.

Having a close age gap between the children, it can be tiring taking care of a child while you are also pregnant.

An advantage is that children can play together, but a disadvantage is that they may show jealousy when they realize that their attention is being taken by the younger child.
