Mine will be 6, 2 or 3 (baby’s due date is within a week of my sons birthday) and then this baby. I wish they were all a little closer in age but it is what it is.
I know ppl stress the age gap thing. Before we were ready to have our 2nd there were ppl who would always give their opinion about wanting your kids closer in age. Our son will be 4 years older than this baby, and I'm fine with that. Coming from experience...my parents had 6 kids. All were about 2 yrs apart and none of us got along until we were adults. I'm closest to my sisters, one is 5 years older and the other almost 4 years younger.
My son is 15. For the last 10 years plus I kept saying I would NEVER have any more kids. Guess they're right when they day "never say never." Got swept off my feet and now my 2nd and his 3rd is on the way. His daughters just turned 14 and 18. Talk about age gaps...
My biggest age gap is 3 years. I find I like it. My shortest is gap is under a year and that was just as easy because you're dealing with 2 babies essentially.... what you do with one, you do with the other.
