[quote=Anonymous]What numbers are you in the birth order? I am 3rd of 4, and am not that close to any of my sibs and always felt neglected by my parents. I attribute this in part to being spaced too closely together: 24 months on one side; 18 months on the other side. As result, I am sticking to an only child, no regrets. Personally I think 24 months (which is what you might get if you start right now) is too close. 24 month olds are still really little and need a lot of mommy/daddy time. Try going for a 3 year spacing. 3 was about the first point when I felt like I could have had another baby without taking away too much from my first child (although I opted not to do it at all).
