After having gone through pregnancy and childbirth, the woman's body must recover before becoming pregnant again. For this reason, it is advisable to wait at least 18 months (year and a half) after giving birth to look for a pregnancy again. However, if the delivery was by caesarean section, the recommendation is to extend this period and wait at least two years until a new pregnancy.
