Ages between kids? Pros and cons

Question

How far apart are your kids!? The hubby popped the 2nd baby sentence and wondering about the ups and downs of age differences🤔

Answer

1 year 12 days. It is super stressful 90% of the time because they are each a giant handful in their own ways, but my oldest is such a good big brother, and them playing and holding hands makes up for any of the stress easy 🤗

Answer

Mine are 19 months apart exactly.
I was terrified to have them close together, but I actually really love it. 
They are almost 4 & 2 now and they’re best friends. 
Don’t get me wrong there are definitely hard days where they drive me crazy but mostly good days. 
We didn’t chose this age gap on purpose but it has worked out really well.

Answer

We have three at the moment.  My older two are 22.5 months apart, it was an awesome gap.  They're far enough apart that I didn't go crazy with them but close enough to be friends.  Our youngest was just born and is 7 years younger than the next child.  It seriously is 100% starting over.  If we have another it will be within the next 2 years.

Answer

I have 5 between my 1st (girl) and 2nd (boy) there is 2 years and 2 months between them and when they were younger they were pretty close but my son was diagnosed with autism and as she got older and progressed and he didn't they weren't quite as close. Between my 2nd and 3td (girl) there is 1 year and 3 months between them they have always been close and still are. Between my 3rd and 4th (boy) there is 2 years and 4months between them and they fight constantly. Between my 4th and 5th (girl) there is a year and 5 months between them and he loves on her every chance he gets. They are all close in age and yes it's a mad house most of the time but there is never a full moment in our house lol

Answer

We have age gaps of 30 months, 23 months and 25 months. Been hoping for baby five for a long long time so that would be like a almost nine years age gap if we conceived just now. I have nephews only 18 months apart they are supper close, relitives 9 years apart to nearest sibling who are also supper close. I think it's great either way! But nice for them to grow up together!

Answer

My girls are about 3.5yrs apart. My oldest is in preschool for a few hours in the mornings which gives me time with just the baby. And as soon as big sister comes home she’s all over her little sis wanting to hold her and love on her. Baby girl is only 10 days old but I feel this age gap has been perfect. My oldest understood me being pregnant and what was to come and we’ve all been adjusting very well. Really not a lot has changed routine wise, I just gotta stop to breastfeed and take baby along when I take my oldest to school now. I just knew I wanted my oldest out of diapers and in school before having baby #2.
