[quote=Anonymous]My kids are three years apart/ four school years. I'm in a quant field so numbers were important to me. Emotion played a part as I felt that I couldn't handle 2 babies at a time. If you are using daycare unless you are one of those 300k plus households and money doesn't matter tuition goes way down at age 2 per week. The difference was like 450 to 300 per week. 900 biweekly was a majority of my take home so it helped spacing them from a cash flow perspective. Personally, I don't like the idea of a nanny for a baby. Once they are older though having them close in the same school. My kids are in private so 4 school years is great lower school tuition is cheaper than upper school. Upper school is cheaper than college. The other thing you need to think about is if they are too close in age will you have enough emotionally energy to deal with two. I would love a third byt financially and timewise it wouldn't make sense for our family.[/quote]
