Fiona I've heard differing opinions about how close you have your bubs and if it can make it worse of help.

My physio seemed to think that spacing them about 3 years gives your body time to heal and get stronger before going through it all again.

Then again my chiro reccons it doesn't make much difference and if you are going to have a few kids in a row or spaced over 15 years your body will still end up the same eventually.

Don't know what I think but I do know I did notice that my seperated tummy muscles were better before Calebs PG. That was about a 3y age gap. I had a 21 month age gap between the first two. If the stomach muscles improved then I'm sure the internal bits improved also.
