Re: what is the age gap

My girls are 2 years, 11 days apart. I think it's a great gap.

Re: what is the age gap

I have 21-22 months between each of my kids. I think a little wider might have been better in a way. Not with 2 but with 3. Thats just me though. I cant comment on what is too wide a gap though - that's a really really personal choice.

My kids are exactly 2 years apart, almost to the day. I think it was fine in the beginning, the past month or so its been getting demanding with the two of them.

If, and its a HUGE if right now, we do have a 3rd, there would be 3 years difference between them.

Re: what is the age gap

mine will be about 10 - 10 1/2 mths apart. I think 5-6 years is a big gap.

Re: what is the age gap

The gap between my oldest and the twins is 7 years. I thought it would be really hard starting over, but the transition was actually pretty easy. I am very happy that there is such a big gap between them.

Mine will be about 2.5 years apart. Not sure what I would consider too wide - not sure I think there is one - it is all personal preference.

Here too, but I think IF there is another - I would wait 3-4 years.

22 months

I don't think of any gap too old to start again as long as everyone is willing.

Re: what is the age gap

My children are 6 year and 26 days apart!!

I had my son when I was very young. I thought it would be horrible but it really isn't. I like the fact that I can really appreciate both of them since now my son is self sufficient.

I don't think there really is a age gap that is right it depends on your preference and situation.

Re: what is the age gap

Julia will be 2 in July, and we would like to start trying soon (if I'm not already by now-lol) so they would be almost 3 years apart.

Re: what is the age gap

10 years.

But...the older one isn't mine. DH had a daughter from his previous marriage and she lives with us. My stepdaughter loves her baby sister and is pretty good with her. I worry about how they will be when the older one is 15 and the little one is 5...but I will cross that bridge when we come to it.
