Age gap

Krista

Tell me about your experiences! I'm really curious about age differences right now. Would love to hear how much time there is between you and your siblings and how well (or not) you got along because of it. Tell me about your personal experience or your kids!

Reason I ask:

I'm 33 and pregnant with my first baby (13 weeks, 4 days!! 💜), will be 34 when baby is born. I would love to have another, but I dont wanna be considered "high risk" just cause I'll be 35 or older, which doesnt seem that old to me anymore. I'm terrified of needles and dont wanna have extra tests cause I'm "old". Was considering trying for the next immediately after this one is born, but most of the people I know have at least a year or two between kids. There's 2 and a half years between me and one of my younger brothers, and we never got along. I haven't talked to this guy since I was 18ish. I have another brother who is almost 17 years younger than me and i was mostly another parent for him. Haha, still picked on him like a big sister, but being an adult, i knew when enough was enough. Most of his classmates mistook me for his mom since I did a lot of pickups and I was the one volunteering in his classes.

So that's me. Tell me about you!
