Age difference between kids

[GeezLouise]

What do you think would be a good age difference between kids? I have one, thinking about having another (not just yet though). What are your experiences with your kids and the age differences?

Chasey has birthed 6 babies in the last 6 years. She is our resident expert on siblings "close in age".

Mine are 3 1/2 years apart and that works for me.

I burfed 5....They are 21(on Saturday), 18(in June), 16(on the 4th of this month), 13(in July) and 8(next month)

I think I spaced them right

And based on your previous siggie line, I assume you finally figured out how this happens and put a stop to it...

Ours are all 2-2 1/2 years apart. Spacing works well for us so far. 3, 5 & 7.

Mine are 10, 8, and 2. I really liked having the older two close but have also found that it is nice to have one later when you are more....relaxed.

I only have one. My younger brother and I are 4 years apart, and up until about a year and a half ago, we fought like crazy. Our youngest brother is 12 years younger than me, and I can only take him in small doses.

I sometimes think about having another one too, but this one's got me .

We are thinking of maybe another in about 2 years. So that they will be about 3 years apart.

Sounds like a plan. I did like the fact that with my older two I was still in the diaper mode when the second one came along.

mine (now 19 & 16) are 2yrs apart it was hard when they were little but they are close now

Mom had me and I guess I was so great she enjoyed it for 10 years before doing it again. God I wish I was an only child.

Dead stop!

and still there

My boys are 3 years apart and the girl is 2 years younger. The dynamic between them changes constantly, sometimes the boys against the girl, sometimes the 2 youngest against the oldest, sometimes the one in the middle is left out, sometimes its anarchy, and on occassion they actually all get along. It all depends on their moods and activities.

it might be like 2 of mine....right now I have one that is 16 and one 17....but, come June they will be 2 yrs apart(there is 21 months between them)

Mine are about 19months apart. (they're 5 and 7 now). They sometimes fight like crazy, get eachother fired up and in trouble, but they ALWAYS want to do what the other is doing and when they're apart only talk about eachother and want to be back together.
