[quote=Anonymous]First two are 19 mon apart, the third is 5 yrs later. I felt overwhelmed with the first two for the young yrs (no help, no family, DH working long hrs). I was unsure if we even wanted a third for a long time. Having had both a short and long age gap, I can say short age gaps are harder in the beginning but the long game is so much easier. Big age gaps are the opposite. The first yr was easy because big kids were at school and I got a ton of 1:1 baby time. But now that youngest is 4 is very hard to manage the vast development and interest differences. But I suspect it will be easier again once youngest is old enough to pretty much do everything, stay (happily) awake all day, and is past the meltdown phase [/quote]
