Q: i have a second child who is just 11 months old. and i am already 6 months pregnant with third child. is it risky?

: Risky to whom? Some families like having kids close together, some spread them out, some didn't have a choice. The kids usually do fine, the mom's health is best judged by the doc(s) who know all the specifics of her past &amp; current history. Kids are a joy. Work with what you have. Good luck.
