[quote=Anonymous]My kids are 5 years apart in part because it took me that long to muster energy for the second. BUT, I loved having the second - I found the transition from 1 to 2 pretty unnoticeable, especially when compared to going from 0 to 1. The first one was a huge culture shock to our peripatetic lifestyle, with the second, we already lived a child-friendly life, plus I knew what I was doing and so less stressed. In my case, the age difference really helped - DC1 is self-sufficient so I don't expend as much energy as I would have had to if they were closer in age. [/quote]
