When is the best time to have your 2nd child?

Question

Experienced mommas, please help! My hubby and i are expecting our first baby in June and have been talking about when it would be best to have our second child. We are planning on having only 2 children. We've been married for 7 years now so we enjoyed our alone time and want to focus on a family. We are just not sure what the best age gap between siblings would be. Thanks for you thoughts!

Answer

I personally Waited four years my son KS now four and I'm now 18weeks pregnant I just feel like I will be more prepared in that way where he's going to be in school and I get to have the baby at home

Answer

The closer the better! 
My first 2 are 12 months apart & im on my third and he and the youngest will be 2 years apart. 
My sister in law planned her 5 years apart, she told me now, after seeing mine together she wishes she would've done the same!

Answer

My first 2 were 18 months apart and it was rough at first. My 2 and 3rd are 4 years apart and it was perfect. This pregnancy there is 5 years apart and its perfect again. My 5 year old cant wait to be a big sister.

Answer

Just try again when you feel ready again

Answer

I'm pregnant with my first but my mom had me and my sisters 3 years apart. She really suggests that age gap and my sisters and I also really liked being spaced like that. It must be pretty popular too because the majority of my friends had siblings my sisters' ages which was really nice because our families ended up being really close!

Answer

My daughter will be 11 months when her sibling is born. I wanted them close in age because I feel like they'll be able to relate and support each other. I also want at least 4 kids and I'm already 25. I refuse to have kids after 30 so they'll all be pretty close together.
