Close age gap?

[maryanne1987]

Tbh I think close age gaps are amazing 😊 I wish I was brave enough! My dd was 19 months when I fell pregnant with ds so heres only 2.4years difference and even I struggle sometimes!!! My 3rd baby will have a bigger age gap as ds will be in school by then! I take my hat off to you, i really do, they will be so close!!

Thanks babyblondex.

Currently 22 weeks prego and have a 12 month old! They will have a 14 month difference We were TTC as well, so 2nd baby was planned.

I wanted to stay at home to raise both kids together til the youngest is old enough for preschool. Then I plan on going back to work as a teacher Just thought I could get my diaper changing days done and over with all at once! Haha

My first two are 16 months apart. I really love their age gap. I was really worried about it because DS was a terrible baby so I wasn't sure how I was going to handle both of them, but DS ended up being a really easy-going toddler and DD was a really easy-going baby, so it worked out really well. They are 7 and 6 now and so incredibly close. They do so much together and play with each other constantly. That being said, they also fight constantly. But that may be due more to their personalities than their age gap.

I'm actually considering planning out an age gap between this baby and the next that's similar to the age gap between DS and DD.

I always wonder how the age gap will work. My daughter will be a couple months shy of 3 when this one comes. Hopefully she'll be listening a little better by then! My sister and I are the same age for 3 days and my mom thought it was good bc I loved my sister and paid attention to her all the time and when she got a little older we played a lot together so to my mom she thought it was easier.
