[quote=Anonymous]I think there is no 'magic' spacing financially because just because you want a kid exactly 2 years apart doesn't mean you will get that. I think from a mom perspective, it's been great having the kids 2 years/grades apart since they always have a playmate, they have their own friends and such since they aren't back to back. We know for college we'll have a small break. Also, from a non-financial way, 2 years apart was nice to be in diapers (2 at the same time) for a bit and in "baby mode" and things like car seats can be reused from one kid to another without things being outdated/expired. 'm amazed with the second one all the things I forgot possibly because of sleep deprovation. But, I am also biased since my parents had kids 2 years apart so to me it's the perfect age apart. From friends I know that had 3 years, their older one had a harder time transitioning than with their kids 2 years apart since 3 is a much different age than 2. Good luck![/quote]
