A. you can plan now itself . After normal delivery there should be a gap of minimum one year before you conceive for the 2nd pregnancy and after c-section there should be a minimum gap of 1.5 to 2 years so that there are less risk factors in your 2nd pregnancy

A. She doesn’t matter whether the five-year gap is going to be okay or not it’s on you if you want to have a second child then five years is a decent enough but just when you plan prepared the older man for the younger sibling because till now you have only given me attention to the older one if you plan another gift to prepare the elder one for the younger one coming and if you want you sure there is no problem
