[quote=Anonymous]My sister and I are 2 years 2 months apart and were great friends growing up so that's the spacing I wanted. I also wanted same-sex siblings since that's what I had. Initially thought we'd timed it perfectly but miscarried, then had more miscarriages, etc etc. Finally had second kid and they are nearly 3.5 years apart and different genders. Not what we'd planned but we'll take what we can get! Due to birthdays they'll be 3 years apart in school. Only having 2 years of daycare overlap instead of 3 will be great. And it's really nice how independent the older one is and how maturely he's handled the addition of the baby. But he's not over the moon about her like some of my friends' older kids were about their siblings. And his schedule is pretty much the diametric opposite of hers in terms of nap and mealtimes, though I know it won't be that way forever. I do worry they won't be close as they grow up. But we'll do what we can and you can't force everything.[/quote]
