Age gaps
in Baby
I'm sure this has been discussed many times, but what age gap do you have between your lo's (or planning to have) and do you think it worked well?
Due to family history I've been advised to have my family before 30. My dh has known this all along, he wanted to get married first so we got married august 07 and started trying once we got back from our honeymoon. I luckily fell pregnant very quickly and Louise was born mid Jult this year. We have said that idieally we'd like another summer baby so are thinking about trying next Autumn so Louise would be about 2 when 'fingers crossed' we have number 2.
Any thoughts?

Good luck when you ttc number 2,
xx
Everyone keeps saying it will be hard work but its better to have them closer together...
we wanted two before hubby hits 40 (next may so only just in time ) as he didnt want to be an 'old' dad - personally dont think he'll ever be old, he hasnt grown up yet
Bear in mind when you decide to ttc again that it can take ages to catch.. so things might not work out as you want them to.

We wanted our 2 to be close but it was still a bit of a shock when we first found out, even though we'd been trying. You just dont expect to catch so soon.
and 3 years 9 months between 2nd and 3rd
i love the gap never needed a double buggy and only ever had one baby in nappies at a time
Good luck with ttc.
Katie, Erin 16mnths and Joe 15 weeks. x
havinh 3 under 2 can be hard but i know other mums who struggle more with 1 than i do with 3.
personaly i think whatever the age gap is, it becomes perfect xx
They are 15 1/2, 7 and 6 months.
I was hoping to avoid the double buggy bit by using a baby carrier for the youngest until the oldest can use a buggy board! lol
