Poll: Moms of more than one child...how many years apart and what gender?

Question

I know I've already asked this but I just find it so interesting to hear others story. Where they planned pregnancies or surprises?

I am 22 weeks pregnant with a girl and have a 19 month old daughter both planned. I want at least 3 and my husband wants to be done:( I know, I know have the second baby and then see how I feel. I just like to plan, even though I know you can't plan life!

Answer 1

I have a 2yr old daughter and I'm due with a boy in about 5wks. We are sooo excited! Every child is like a snowflake..all different! Can't wait! Best of luck to you!!!

Answer 2

I have 3 kids my 1st was a "suprise" boy who is now 4 1/2,

My 2nd was a planned girl who will be 3 in october and my newest bub was a boy who was 3 weeks old yesterday he was also a suprise...found out i was pregnant just after a m/c.

I would so love to have atleast another 2 kids but it's not possible as we would need a bigger house and car but we will see what happens in a couple of years who knows =)

Answer 3

1st one wasn't planned.

Boy and is now 3.5years.

2nd one was planned Girl 1 year old.

Answer 4

I have one boy, one girl and one on the way. My boy is 6, my girl is 4 and I am 27 wks. preg. with the other one. My boy and girl were planned, but this one was a complete surprise

Answer 5

my sister has 2 girls and a lil boy on the way there more than a year  apart 3 almost 4 almost 2 and due in october

Answer 6

I'm 13 but my sister and I are 4 years apart and both girls, with me my dads story is my mom begged him for another kid and my mom says it was a mutual decision, with my sister I'm not quite sure my mom had her with her first husband and I have a brother but my mom didn't have him, he was from my dads first marriage and I'm pretty sure he was planned

So our ages are me:13, my sister:17, my brother: almost 21

my moms best friend has 3 kids who are 2 years apart and the first 2 were planned but the youngest was a complete accident. what happened was her husband got fixed or whatever the proper term is and that day him and his wife had un-protected s*x thinking they were safe but because he had just got it done he had left over sperm and she got pregnant

the ages right now are 2, 4, and 6

Answer 7

my first was a surprise.  he's 3.5  and i'm now 27 weeks pregnant with number 2. (another boy!)  he is due october 23 and my son's birthday is november 5.  we're going to have a busy couple of weeks!

Answer 8

All of my pregnancies weren't exactly planned but I ended up having four girls whose ages are now 24, 20, 17 and 15.

Answer 9

I have 5, all unplanned. They are a Girl almost 12 years, Boy 8 years, Twin Girls 7 years and the "baby" is a girl almost 6. The last ones are about 15 months apart, therefore I had 4 in diapers at one time. I am thankfull for potty training and no more diapers. I am sooo done with having babies. However I loved being pregnant even with the complications.

Answer 10

I am 35 weeks pregnant with a boy and have a 15mth old son, neither one was planned. We hope to have a girl one day, planned. Thats all the kids we want, :), but what happens happens... we'll use protection after this one, but who knows what will happen in a few years!!

Answer 11

Heya

Well im pregnant with my first so i cant answer properly yet but ill do it for my family.

sister - 34 (dads side) - suprise

brother - 33 (mums side) - suprise

brother - 29 (mums side) - suprise

sister - 24 (dads side) - planned

sister - 21 (dads side) - planned

me - 17 (both) - suprise

sister - 14 (both) - planned

Im pregnant with my 1st and it was planned. my boyfriend was asking me when i was 15 to ttc (he is quite abit older than me) but i refused until i had finshed school.

My sister is pregnant with her 1st to.she is only 14. she said it was a suprise but the whole family thinks she planned it after she found out i was pregnant. she's been on a downward spiral for a while to be honest this was the icing on the cake.

=] x*x

Answer 12

Answer 13

Answer 14

Planned girl now 11 and "surprise" boy now 10.

Only 10 1/2 months between them!

Surprise might be wrong word - shock - better described my reaction at the time!

Answer 15

I am expecting triplets (20 weeks at the moment!) so they should be a very small gap between my children lol. This pregnancy was planned but well not the spontaneous triplet part hehe. They are all girls, and we are far from done.............. just give me time to recover!

Answer 16

Three boys:  9, 6 and six weeks...all planned (we are done).
