If this is going to be your 2nd+ child

how big an age gap is there going to be?  Do you feel good about the spacing between your kids?

Re: If this is going to be your 2nd+ child

  • We are looking at 3 years and 5 months.  I had originally wanted them closer but it took us 7 months this time to get pregnant.  I was a little upset at first about the age gap but I think it will be easier if my son is a little older.

  • Mine will be 2y2m.  I'm pretty happy with the spacing.  We were initially hoping for 2U2, but it took us much longer than we thought.

  • Mine will be about 2yrs 9mos. We weren't really planning on trying until this summer, so more than a 3 year difference, but we both realized we were ready now.

  • 22 months apart. I'm ok with the age gap. I wanted them close...Maybe even a little closer, but as long as both of my babies are healthy then we're good.

  • Ours will be 3 years almost exactly.  We too hoped for closer to 2. Been trying a long time. But honestly I'm thrilled now. I think 3 will be great and DS will be old enough to understand more and be helpful.

  • We started TTC a year ago, we wanted a year - a year and a half gap between the two, we got 2 years 2 months, but I'll take it! LO is 18 months now.
  • They will be 20 months apart. My H and I each had only one sibling both with a 4.5 year gap. It will be exciting to see our kids grow up with a different sibling experience than we had!

  • Ours will be just over 3 years apart, which is okay with me. In an ideal world, they'd be closer but life got in the way and we couldn't try any earlier.
  • About 21 months.

  • DD will be 9 in June...so there is a big gap!
  • DS will be 3 in March, so about 2 years 9 months age gap.  I wanted more of a 2 1/2 year age gap, but I'll take what I can get.

  • DS will be just about 18 months when this one is due. We had problems getting pregnant last time so didn't expect it to happen this fast. I breastfeed and had just gotten my period back at the end of Feb. We're excited and nervous at the same time. We wer

  • Ours will be almost exactly 4.5 years apart. It took me a long time after DS to decide that I wanted another child. By the time we started TTC, DS had just turned 3 and I was wishing we already had another one.

    So, I would have liked a smaller g

  • I will have one that will be 12, 8, and 2 almost 3 when this baby gets here. Some big gaps but the oldet girls will be a great help.
  • My oldest was 9.5 when her sister was born. She will be 11.5 when Baby #3 is born. Baby #2 will be 22 months when Baby #3 is born.  There is a much larger age gap between #1 and #2 than I would have liked, but we were waiting until I finished nursing
