Question

Or what would be the prefered age gap?

Answer 1

My daughter and the child I'm pregnant with will be 21 months apart.  :)  

Answer 2

My son is 6 was born in May 2002

My daughter is 3 born in June 2005

My baby will be born on 1st Sept 2008

So 3 years between each of them, I get a new baby each time one of them starts Nursery School lol, it wasn't planned that way its just how it happened

Answer 3

20 months age gap between mine, 4month old and a 2 year old

Answer 4

My son will be 28 months old when our second boy is due (October 11th), so a little over 2 yrs apart.

Answer 5

im 14 and my brother is 17. its a good age difference.

my cousins are 14 and 15, they are both girls. that age is good too, but they have problems with boys and sharing friends and stuff.

Answer 6

I'm pregnant with my first but me and my sister is 4 years apart (she is the oldest) I'm 25 and she is 29, but check this out my my little brother is 14 years younger than me , he is 11 years old and I also have an 11 years nephew, my mom and sister were pregnant @ the same time.

Answer 7

my daughter is 8 on sat and im due in dec so big 8 years x*x

Answer 8

I have a three and a half year gap between my children, and at times they get on fine. However I do think that you should either have a smaller gap or longer either 18 mths to 2 years gap or a 5 year gap. I think all siblings bicker though regardless of age gap.

Answer 9

16 months.  Would have been less but I got married in the middle.

Answer 10

Think I might hold the record here cos I have 2 girls and they were born 10 years apart. They're now 14 and 4. Might not be everyone's ideal but it works fine for us. There's no competition between them, both had our full attention as babies, and the elder girl is almost like a 3rd parent to the younger, but can also relate to her as a sibling and play with her as a child. They dote on each other, and have a special bond with no jealousy as they're not competing for the same kind of attention. It's also the best training for the elder girl for when she has kids of her own

Answer 11

My kids are 4 years apart.  It was perfect because my oldest was in preschool when my youngest was born.

Answer 12

Their is 18 months between my two doughters and their is 13 months between my middle daughter and my son.

Answer 13

23 months. I will have a two year old and a 1 month old.

Answer 14

16 months between my two. Can't imagine leaving a big gap. Got all the baby stuff over and done with quickly, just got teenage trouble to contend with now :(

A friend of mine got her first to school, had a baby. Got that one to school, had another baby.  

Answer 15

Our two are 6 and 4 (19 months age gap). We have one on the way due in early December.  

Answer 16

My boys are 3yrs apart and i think it is a good age gap, although they can be the best of friends one minute and enemies the next. But the best gift i could give to each of my children is a sibling, as friends come and go but i will rest assured that they will always have each other, and now im planning another baby, and this age gap will be around 7 yrs.

Answer 17

my oldest is 3, then my twins are 1 and then im pregnant with the next one.

i say about 1-2 years is the right age.

Answer 18

My son (first born) will be 7 years old on December 1st and #1 is due on October 31st!!!

So that'ss a gap of 6 years and 11 months ish if this one is on time.

I think it's better to have a larger gap or a smaller gap if there is to be one. There was 5 years between me and my sister and 16 years between my partner and his brother!!!

Answer 19

4  

Answer 20

4 years in my 2 children

Answer 21

37

36

21

19

17

3

I think I set the record. LOL

Answer 22

We have 3 and a half years between our first 2 and 22 months between the last.

We plan at least 2 years between 3 and 4 as 22 months was a little close.  

Answer 23

4 years between my children which in my view is ideal, as the older one was able to understand that the baby needed more care etc.

Answer 24

7 - 13

Answer 25

my kids are 2 and 4 1/2  I like the age difference, there is a big enough gap that it wasn't like having two babies at the same time, only one in diapers at a time.  But the gap is small enough that they still have loads of fun playing together

Answer 26

I only have one, If i have another (which im not sure if i will) it will be in around 5-6 years or so.

I will tell you my siblings though :) There is my older brother who is 26, me, Im 20. Our younger brother & sister are 11 & 12.

Me and my older brother also have a brother who is 21, and have just found out my dad is having a baby.

Complicated family lol.

Answer 27

I think 3 years is ideal. Its not too close in age and it isnt too distant of a gap.  

Answer 28

Well i dont have kids but me and my brother are 21 months apart

Im 16 and hes 15 next month =] are parents always treated us like twins when we were little ,im glad were only 21 months apart as i cant remember life without him =]

Answer 29

I don't have kids, but me and my little brother are 7 years apart. That's not a good age gap. I would say 3-4 years at the most.

Answer 30

I don't know what the "perfect" age gap would be, but there is 2yrs 3mths between my son and daughter. I'm pregnant now and there will be 2yrs 1mth between my daughter and the new baby. So I find 2yrs is a good gap for me. Good luck hun xx

Answer 31

My little girl is 2 and a half, and my son is due in a week and a half. Usually people say 3 years is a good time span, but we decided to have one a bit earlier :).
