I think 2 or 3 years apart is perfect. My brothers and I are all three years apart. It worked out great. My bf's cousin had 4 boys in 3 years. One boy one year, another the next and twins the next year.

Seems like a nightmare to me, but they wanted a big family.

My oldest son will be 20 (yikes!) this Christmas Eve.... and boy he was a lot of work. Took me 6 years to get up the courage to have another and my October born baby was a mother's dream! He was everything that everyone elses baby was when I had my oldest son - slept through the night within a week etc.. amused himself - rarely cried etc.. He was so wonderful that I suggested to my husband that we consider one more since I'd be home anyway... I too wanted to have another 2 - 3 years a part but..... 14 months later I had twins!

If anyone had told me one day I'd have Irish triplets I'd never of had children but I have love the whole experience and found the gang of three so much easier to care for than my older son who was 6 until he had a sibling.

Go For It!

Mine are 18 months apart. We had originally though 2 years and then thought we had an Oops, so threw caution to the wind and did end up pregnant shortly thereafter!! Boy first, girl second.

You look too young to have that many kids, especially ones that old.

I have a daughter who will be 15 months old on the 30th. We are probably going to start trying for our 2nd around the 1st of the year. They will hopefully be 2.5-3 years apart.

kitty · 08-23-2006, 04:31 PM

I have 4 kids. They are 11, 10, 7, and going on 6 The first 2 are 13 1/2 mos. apart and I conceived on birth control pills. My last 2 are from my second marriage and my x wasn't suppose to be able to have babies since he had cancer and they removed a testicle and he went threw chemo and radiation treatments. I wouldn't trade them for a thing and after having the 3 boys I finally got my girl. They just weren't planned.

Amber_lv · 08-23-2006, 04:34 PM

Emmsmom · 08-23-2006, 05:37 PM

WOW ! I only have one. I wish sometimes that I had had one more. I guess it just wasn't meant to be.My DD is 9 and I am 34 so I am not sure if I really want to start all over at this point to be honest. There are a lot of other reasons why I shouldn't really have anymore.(health) I still wish that I had tried to have another when I was younger.
