My first two are 5 years and 3 months apart on the dot. Now, my youngest will be 2 weeks away from 2 when our new baby is here. So I am hoping I don't go late because I would hate for them to have to share a birthday.
My siblings and I were all about 2 years apart, except myself and my little brother. We are only 18 months, 4 days apart. My Boys are a little over 5 years apart, and we will have a little over 6.5 years between youngest DS and this baby, while our Oldest DS will be almost 12!
Re: Age gaps
Honestly, if I could have my druthers, the second would be 8-10 years apart. That is WILDLY impractical, I'm 30 and DH is 38.
My solution to this is to be one and done. DH wants three, which means at least one I would be AMA...
If everything goes smoothly, we'll likely compromise at two, somewhere between 18 months and four years apart (and always dependent on my health).
