Re: How long did you wait in between children?

I got pregnant again when my dd was 9 months old...we were kind of trying...we wanted them close in age but of course it took longer to conceive my dd that we were kinda shocked that we got pregnant right away...it was hard in begining but now they are so cute together

DS # 1 & DS # 2 are 22 months apart. DS # 2 & the twins are 2 weeks shy of being exactly 2 years apart. Our surprise 5th baby will be 15 months younger than her sisters.

How long did you wait in between children?

My kids are 3 years apart. I wasn't ready until DS was about 2. Looking back I wish I had them closer together because we have a huge jealousy problem.

My boys are 3y 4M apart. I originally did not want them to be so far apart but the age difference wound up being perfect for us.

First two are 16 months apart. #2 and #3 will be almost 3.5 years apart. We didn't intend in such a big gap this time, but having only one in diapers will be a nice treat!

Re: How long did you wait in between children?

As DS1 approached a year old, I was starting to feel ready to try again, and so they are almost 21 months apart. Initially I had hoped to have this same gap again for my next, but it doesn't look like that will be happening because DS2 will be a year old next month & I've not been successful at all with weaning him so far & haven't even gotten my period back yet & who knows how long it'll all take. So for the next, the gap will be bigger.

My DD and DS are 2 years apart but I also had a loss in between. We started trying for #2 when DD was almost 11 mos old. We are thinking #3 and I would like another 2 year age difference, give or take a few months.

Re: How long did you wait in between children?

DS is 5.5 and DD is 5 months.
I was nervous about the age difference initially but i LOVE it now!
DS is completely self sufficent, can get himself dressed etc in the morning
and they are obsessed with eachother.
He is always taking care of her, making her life, plays with her, reads to her..
Love them being 5 years apart!

How long did you wait in between children?

Mine are 4 yr 3 mth apart. We started trying for #2 when DD was 18 months old but struggled with fertility issues.

I always wanted to have them within 2 years of each other but the 4 year gap was a blessing in disguise.

My DD is very self sufficient and helps out a lot. I couldn't imagine having a toddler and a newborn because my little guy was and is a difficult baby.

DD will be 5 this Sunday and DS will be 1 in June.

Ours will be 4 years apart. We planned it that way, mostly because of the cost of full time daycare. But it's also nice that now at 32w pregnant, DS can actually help me and be pretty self-sufficient. I'm sure there will be some jealousy issues but so far I'm happy we waited a bit to have a 2nd.

Our plan was 3 years, but our plan was not God's plan.. His plan was 4 1/2 years.
