So you can hope for a close age distance but can't always get your wish. I was planning to not nurse out 2nd as long so the 2nd and third might be closer in age. Just found out yesterday #2 and #3 are arriving at the same time! How's that for close in age?! Can't plan much!megs7827https://www.blogger.com/profile/00997303032536717091noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-635077151130554932.post-57470535425392679782013-07-10T22:23:44.597-04:002013-07-10T22:23:44.597-04:00It is different for everyone and I think that'...It is different for everyone and I think that's great.

My 3rd came 4 1/2 years after my 2nd, so I got to experience that dynamic, too. I can rave about both age differences!

I think everyone has different reasons and they definitely should space their kids as little or as much as they would like!Chantalhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09543581308363689982noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-635077151130554932.post-77050711111019551302013-07-10T13:06:11.491-04:002013-07-10T13:06:11.491-04:00I got pregnant right after my first son turned 1. ...I got pregnant right after my first son turned 1. It was not planned. They are 21 months apart and it has been a wonderful age difference! Now I'm pregnant with baby #3 and the age difference will be quite a bit. Three and five years! But I'm so excited to see my boys be helpful. They actually know what's going on (somewhat) and are so excited for the new baby!Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-635077151130554932.post-3413518438348316872013-07-10T11:08:40.800-04:002013-07-10T11:08:40.800-04:00We always wanted to have our kids close in age, be...We always wanted to have our kids close in age, because my husband and his brother & my sister and I are close in age. But, while that was our plan.. it didn't happen that way and instead took us 3+ years and fertility drugs to get pregnant again. Our kids are now 9 (almost 10) and 5. So their age difference is almost exactly 5 years and we LOVE it. I know how great it is to be close in age with a sibling and now I'm able to see what it's like to have a large age gap. It has worked so well for us. My kids are SO so close. <br />Watching our babies interact with one another is always such a sweet thing.Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15318693223852586524noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-635077151130554932.post-39477913643201817212013-07-10T10:07:09.255-04:002013-07-10T10:07:09.255-04:00My two girls are almost exactly 3 years apart and ...My two girls are almost exactly 3 years apart and it works for us! To watch them now, baby girl is 5 months old this week (what?), and to watch them interact with eachother already is just priceless. The way baby girl lights up at big sister anytime she sees her just melts my heart. The age gap is perfect for us as like you we don't know it any other way. I look forward to watching them grow togetehr and form that forvever sister bond!

I've always wanted my kids to be close in age but I don't want it to be so close that I'm always stressed out. I always want to enjoy motherhood the way I do now!
