How soon should a woman get pregnant after giving birth?

News
I have heard stories of women getting pregnant 6 weeks after giving birth. Experts recommend that a couple can begin to have sex 6 weeks after the woman has given birth and so getting pregnant after 6 weeks of giving birth can be true.However, is it safe to get pregnant that soon? Are there any risks of that? Experts recommend that a woman should get pregnant 18 to 23 months between pregnancies. This is because during that period of time, the mother gets to heal completely first and also the baby gets to have all the nursing benefits. ?Experts say that getting pregnant too soon can risk the woman having a miscarriage and other severe complications. Getting pregnant after giving birth can however be determined by how fertile the woman is. Other women can take 3 to 5 years before getting pregnant. Breast feeding can also delay a woman’s cycle and that is why the chances of a breast feeding mother getting pregnant soon are lower than the woman not breast feeding.A couple trying to get pregnant after having a child is a decision that they should not take lightly. They have to make sure that they are well prepared both physically and mentally. Raising one kid can be a lot of hard work and thus, a couple should give themselves time to first adjust the feeling of having a baby before getting another baby.Taking the time to also bond with the newborn is also very important so that the parents do not have divided attention trying to get pregnant again.
