   There is 2 years 10 months between my boys and I like the age difference. I am going to plan the same for next time too. |

     I was a puree feeder, forward facing, cot sleeping, pram pushing kind of Mum... and my kids survived!

   There's 13 months between my girls and it's hard work - made worse by the fact that Emma has reflux.
I think (hope) things will be easier later on though ie dropping them at daycare/school together for most of the time. I also hope they'll be really good friends as they'll be so close in age.

 I have big age gaps - when Brooke was born Josh was 3 months off from starting school - and it was great.  When Rhylz came along the gap was 8 years (Brooke) and 13 years (josh) but I am sure your not wanting to wait that long LOL..

   I have 15 months between my two (supposed to be 18months) and I find it hard, especially now they are at a age where there personality's clash and are forever fighting    |

   If we TTC successfully this month and all goes well, there'll be about 22 months between my two.  I hope that'll work out ok!

   well lets see, if DF and i succeed in TTC  in the next couple of months, Caitlyn will be  six.
Bigger age gap than i wanted but hey, thats how it worked out .
 
 I think i'll like this age gap tho , she loves babies and knows how to hold them etc, and can understand if i cant give her all my time,and better yet, she'll be at school all day ,score !

   We have 13 1/2 mths between our two babies. We were worried about such a small gap in the beginning - but now, we couldn't imagine it any other way! It is certainly very busy and a little stressful at times - but it is all worth it. They may as well be twins - considering I've got two in nappies and cots etc. 
 I do get quite annoyed with people at the moment when they joke about how busy I'd be at home when they hear about the age gap between Georgia and Matilda. I feel like saying to people "Don't you think I know that!!"    |
