Age gap

Jamaicanlove · August 2010

How far apart in ages would you like your children to be? If you already have children, or are pregnant; how far apart are your children?

Jamaicanlove · August 2010

We would like our children to be 3-4 years apart.

My boys are 1 minute apart.

But I don't think we're the best ones to answer your question!

We would love DS and (God-willing) #2 to be 2 to 2.5 years apart, and I know it might sound crazy but only 2 years apart in school.

We try to take babies 1 pregnancy at a time, so I can't say for certain if or when we'd like to have #3. But right now, I'd def like to have a third, and 3 years apart from #2. (we'll see if I'm singing the same tune after #2, again God-willing).

2-2.5 years. Both DH and I were 5 years younger and HATED it. Our older siblings never wanted us tagging along so we felt left out. We want our DD and her sibling to be close in age so they play with similar toys and/or have things in common.

My 2 are 21 months apart. I think we will start TTC next April so they will probably be between 2.5-3 years apart. God willing.

I am pregnant now and they will be 20 months apart.

I think two years is good, but we will probably end up being 3-4 years apart due to other circumstances.

Mine are 7 minutes apart.

I want our children to be 2 years apart, and we would like 3 children total.

Mine are 23 months apart.

Mine are about 2yr 4mo apart. If we have a 3rd I'd like to keep that spacing, which would mean TTCing this fall for a summer 2011 baby!

Ours will be 2 yrs 5 months apart. I'm pretty happy with that spacing. I guess we were trying for anything over 2 years apart (in school, DS bday is in oct so if the 2nd was just shy of 2 yrs apart they would only be 1 year apart in school...we didn't want that). Anyway, it took 6 months to get KU so we just ended up with about 2.5 years. I've had a lot of people point out that it's a great age difference! I'd have waited longer but DH is older and I would like the opportunity to have a 3rd if we want, so we didn't wait too long.
