How close in age are your babies?

Question

My little babe will be 1 in nov! 
Hubby & I are thinking about trying for our next (soon)
Hoping for some advice as to pros n cons on having a close age gap with the next baby or waiting it out a bit longer? What is your experience?

Answer

My first and second are 2.5 years apart
My first and third at 6 years apart
My second and third are 3 years apart
To me they are the perfect age gap

Answer

Mine are 2 years and 10 months apart. Planned that way. I wanted to wait a minimum of 2 years. Not just for my body to heal properly but also For us- it would be selfish to have them so close. I wanted to focus our attention 100% on my son for a while and I can imagine I would be so stressed. I saw my friend have 2 of her kids 10 months apart 🤯 Like literally baby boy was born December 2018 and had baby girl October 2019 (1 month before my baby girl) and she had a 2.5 year old and she is beyond struggling (she tells me herself)🤯 I could never do that to my kids.

Answer

Following! We’ve been wondering the same thing. Initially we thought we’d wait until a 2-3 year but lately we’ve been tempting to get the ball rolling and start sooner.

Answer

25 months (and a day) it was initially tough to have a toddler and a newborn- but now that the babe is 10 months old they can kinda play together! I’m a middle child and my siblings are about 2 years older and 2 years younger- I have fond memories of playing together. My husband is 3.5 years older than his sister and they weren’t close growing up.

Answer

I'll have a 1 year old November 13th and a 13 year old December 21st 🤣 I'm going to aim to have my third and final baby juuust before my littlest is 3 or 4. Preferably 4 because they're less jealous and want a sibling usually around that age (well my eldest did anyway)

Answer

We just have our daughter. We’d like to have 2.5-3.5 years between them. We only want 2. We’ll discuss next June if we want to try for a sibling or not.

Answer

My first was 22 months when my babe arrived it’s honestly perfect . They playing together already and first it’s a hard adjustment but once you get a good routine going it’s amazing ! 
I would love to have a third soon to but still I’m 50/50 on having a third

Answer

My boys are 16mo apart.  It was hard in the begining but doable.  Now they play together pretty well for the most part.    Hardest part in the begining is keeping the oldest from hurting the baby.   But my oldest was just crazy soooo he was prob a little worse ab that than the average child

Answer

Babe will be 1 in November my second due in March they will be 16 months apart!!

Answer

First and second are 15 months apart (LOVE  this age gap)
Second and third will be 11m- a year apart depending when she comes. (Due 3 days before #2s birthday)
