Patient's question:
Since the two-child policy was relaxed, my sister-in-law has been torn between whether to have a second child. This is because her younger niece is already 12 years old this year, and she is worried about the psychological impact it might have on her. Is it good to have children who are 12 years apart in age?Doctor's answer:
Here is the English translation of the provided text, with the line breaks remaining as they are:As I told you, now that the policy on the second child has been relaxed, you can consider conception. The living conditions are relatively good now, and generally, women can get pregnant at the age of 35. The age difference of 12 years between the second child is not a problem at all. There is no need to worry about psychological issues for the children. Their age difference will absolutely not lead to any rejection mentality.
It is recommended that if you plan to conceive, it is best to deliver as soon as possible. Taking folic acid tablets for three months before and after pregnancy can effectively prevent neural tube defects.
