But what this doctor has said is common sense. Anyone with half a brain should know it is advisable to give your body a rest after child birth but many Nigerian women never listen. Little wonder so many Nigerian women sadly die during child birth and never get to enjoy the motherhood they so desired.

Also, having babies every year is the reason why an increasing number of women have slacked or over stretched private parts (v*a*g*i*n*a) and then tomorrow they will complain when their husbands begin to cheat on them with 18 and 20 year old girls. Women better be wise. Maintain your private part before your oga at the top looks for a replacement outside.

2-3 years is the advice.

There are many reasons behind this.
In Nigeria, poor nutrition, recurrent infections...eg malaria, typhoid deplete blood levels.
Pregnancy isn't similar to cutting fingers.... lose 5-10mls.

Women lose up to 500-1000mls blood in a normal delivery.....How much more in operative deliveries, previously anemic women thanks to malaria etc or in complicated settings . Heart is burdened by the hyperdynamic state worsened in presence of anemia/ hemorrhage+/-hypertension.

Poor antenatal facilities, previous poor healthcare sourcing or provision with existence of medical co-morbidities: sometimes previously unknown eg Sc, SS,AS thalasemia blood genotypes or heart disease.... only increase the problem.


Maternal mortality figures are rather high in NGR. And high in African communities in Diaspora, particularly those who come in as health tourists. A good percentage come in with previously undiagnosed medical problems and remain in denial rather than commence treatment in a timely fashion or sometimes simply too late to receive any help!!!!


Complicated by the above factors and also incessant childbearing with deleterious cultural practices.

Decision to abstain can be made dependent on.the woman's condition, following due counselling.
It's irresponsible to make a sweeping generalization not to take on the "delay" advice, that could put most NGR women at risk.

To the 37yr old, it may be deemed inappropriate to delay childbearing from the social point of view. But her underlying health takes precedence not wants or desires. Now as women are having babies into the late 40's or early 50's, as long as they are certified to be healthy to do so. It only reinforces the mantra: good health is paramount.

A responsible mother wants to bring in the number of children, she can successfully take care of, given her health and socioeconomic state.

thank you - there are issues going on in a woman's body we can't see from the outside. when i was pregnant the midwife and doctor told me it takes 9-12months for a woman's body to recover, heck i'm still having back pain from the epidural and my daughter is 2 years +

2 yrs is okay but for ladies like us they havent got married at our early 30's nko and wants to give birth to 5. That means at 40, one will still be given birth.
For me o 11 months space is ok.

Blackteeth: How can it take two years to recover blood lost? It means if I get a knife cut it would take about 3 weeks to regain my blood lost.

But seriously, you compare the enormity of pregnancy, childbirth and breastfeeding to a knife wound...?
