Jaycob turned 6 when the girls were 2 months, I think the gap between them is too much, he wasnt interested in them when they were born, but Im not sure he wasnt scared of them because they had tubes and all.

Well, Chandler and Keanan are 6 years apart (NOT my idea)--I had a miscarriage between them, when Chan was 2. We are trying for number 3 now, and Keanan is 2 & 1/2--hopefully about 3 & 1/2 when we have a new baby...DH and I think that gives Keanan long enough to be the baby, before becoming a big brother. Of course, it totally depends on your family and what you are willing to put up with--either both in diapers, or one in diapers and one potty training, or starting over. Good luck with your decision, Erin!

i'm talking about ttc for a second when the first is about 2 that way the first will be around 2 and 1/2 to 3 when the second is born and should be toilet trained or just about (haven't even started TTC for the first yet!!!)... this does all depend on how long it takes for me to fall PG with the first

I want to have another but my husband doesn't. If it was my choice I'd be pregnant now. I'd want them to be only a year apart if that. My husband doesn't understand why I want to have another. He thinks one is fine. He was a only child. Well I'm a twin.

Kylie was 2 years, 5 months when Emma was born. Now she is 2 years 8 months and Emma is 3 and a half months. They are 29 months apart(It's not too bad Nicole, though mine was 3 months older than how old Matthew will be). Kylie is really good with Emma...the 29 month age difference isn't that wide, and she treats Emma like her baby...MOST of the time..but hey, she's a big sister, and she takes it as her responsibility to antagonize her little sister in between cuddles. That's just how it works, no matter what the age gap.

My girls are 9 months apart , neither was planned. My first was two months old when I got pregnant with my second (I was about two months along when I found out), who was born at 26 weeks. They get to spend about four months being the exact same age.

Thanks , guys
Due to some health problems my doctor recomended if we wanted another we need to start trying in 8- 10 months. So will see. Dh and I are kinda up in the air about it. I am worried they will be to close in age.
