A study revealed that maternal mortality risks are higher with shorter intervals between pregnancies.
In addition, more chances of adverse fatal and infant outcomes and spontaneous preterm birth are present with expectant mothers aged 20 to 34 years, rather than those over the age of 35.
The research was published in JAMA Internal Medicine on Monday 29 October and studied a cohort of 148,544 pregnancies.
Head of quality at the Royal College of Midwives Mandy Forrester said the new data is useful.
"Ultimately it will be a woman's choice, whatever age they are, about how long they leave between their pregnancies.
"What is important is that they are aware of the evidence around birth spacing and that they make their choice armed with the right information."
Mrs Forrester added that health professionals will always support women in their choices, and that advice about contraception can be provided to allow them to space their births if that is their choice.
