Child's spacing is giving a long gap or duration between each child you birthed. This is a method of birthing that is recommended even by the experts as it doesn't just help with reducing the financial stress of caring for a child at a time, it's helps the mother's body to recover better before trying to go through another pregnancy cycle .

You can also save money with this method of birthing. With this action of child's spacing you can use the previous things that was used for the previous child for the new baby.. if possible you might not need to shop for the new baby and a huge amount of money will be saved.


Secondly, with spacing your children you can handle and care better for them. You might not necessarily need a nanny or any helping hands to pay to assist and of course you would be saving money in the process. Unlike when you didn't space them and unfortunately, have two toddlers to cared for at a time you might need a helping hands which will lead to spending money.

Spacing your children means caring for a baby per time which the cost will reduced and money save than when you are caring for 2 almost babies as you did not space them.

When you have kids, it can be hard to save money. But don't worry I got you covered!

Here are some tips for saving on child's spacing:

1. Plan ahead. Get your sprogs in the habit of sleeping on time by giving them a regular bedtime: 9pm is best. Then, make sure they get up at the same time every morning. If you're like us, that means getting up at 5am (sometimes earlier) so we can go to work before everyone else gets up. Try to keep the same schedule as much as possible throughout the week so that everyone is consistent with their sleep schedules. Also, plan for long days at school or other activities with friends so that your kids don't get too tired out and miss their sleep times.

2. Make a budget for childcare costs and stick to it! We know it's hard when there are bills to pay and rent or mortgage payments every month but this is necessary if you want your kids to grow up healthy and happy! Set aside money every month for childcare expenses so that when they need it, they'll have it without having to ask for it.
