Q.

Hi Doctor/Gynaec, I have a 3.9 year old boy, with speech delay. On basic assessment, doctor diagnosed him with Autism. We have started his Occupational and Speech therapies, to which he has started responding too. My question is that, If we plan for second child, is it a good idea or we should just drop it.

A. If you are sure about having a second child, think about the age gap. Ensure that you give yourself a minimum of 18 months after your first pregnancy for your body to recover. A shorter age gap of 2-4 years allows the children to grow up together as playmates. It's also more work for you.
