Age gaps... big than small any issues ?

Question

Had anyone got a 5 year gap followed by a 2 ish year gap? 
I’m not getting any younger but I’m just not wanting my first born to be “left out” if the other two are closer in age... is this an issue?

Answer

My brother and I are 4 years apart while my sister and I are 7. I never ever felt left out and was so happy to have a sister in the beginning. As we got older though we didn’t speak and even now I’m not close to her at all. I was moved out of the house when she was starting her first year of JR high so our gap just never got us close. 
My kids have the exact same gap that my siblings and I have. My oldest will be two months shy of 7 when this baby is born and he is very excited. He’s been asking us to have a baby for a little over a year now lol we will always make sure he never feels left out but I’m totally prepared for them to maybe not have a close relationship as they get older.

Answer

Mine are 8, 7, 1.5 & I’m pregnant with the fourth. The age gap for us is great because the older two are interested in helping. 
Also helpful because the older two are for the most part self sustainable. Do if there is any point where things are super hectic with the youngest or pregnancy, they don’t have to wait on me or my husband to do certain things for themselves. 
We love the age gaps we have.

Answer

It is really only a issue if you make or let it be a issue. My oldest is and middle are almost 3 years exactly apart. My son is however 11 years younger then my oldest and 8 years younger then my middle. They are all 3 commonly together threw out the day . The two oldest spend one on one time together frequently threw out the days and each of my oldest spend time separately with my youngest. 💁🏻
