Planning Your Next Pregnancy
Why Pregnancy Spacing Matters
Taking time between pregnancies is one of the most important gifts you can give to yourself, your current child, and your future children. Proper spacing allows:
- Your body to fully heal and recover
- Your current baby to receive the attention they need during critical developmental stages
- Your family to prepare financially and emotionally for another child
- You and your partner to focus on your relationship and goals
Health experts recommend waiting at least 18-24 months between giving birth and becoming pregnant again.
This guide will help you understand the benefits of spacing pregnancies, contraceptive options available in PNG, and how to prepare physically, emotionally, and financially for your next child when the time is right.
