I thinkk its 6 weeks but double check with your ob

I believe that you are supposed to wait atleast as long as you carry a baby nine months or so but ask your doctor though he will know you better

My doc told me you should wait at least a year to let your,body heal!! But ultimately its up to u my best friend went in for her 6 week check up n found out she was pregnant again so it def happens!

@Landynplus1momma wow six weeks I can't imagine

Yeahhhh its crazy lol I'm stressing about my babies being 23 months apart lol my great grandma had 3 boys all exactly 9 months apart talk about hands full needless to.say she got her tubes tied lol but I do however think its great for the kids to grow up with siblings close in age me n my bro r 23 months and best friends same with my dad and his sister exactly 23 months apart too good luck hoping a happy healthy pregnancy for u @mommysierra

I got pregos with my 2nd when my 1st was 9 months. That second pregnancy was better than my first. Six wks is when you could have sex again so go for it as long as you are healthy enough.

I got pregers with my 2nd child when the 1st was 3months, now they are exactly a yr apart(1st - will be 7, 2nd will be 6 both born in same month). As long as ur body is ready, evrything shuld work out well as planned.....goodluck!

I would wait a lil. That's alot for your body and don't quote me but I would think you could ne higher risk for depression because of drastic hormonal changes.
