[quote=Anonymous]I love this question, for some reason I find peoples different perspectives on age gaps fascinating. My ideal spacing are 17-20 months. My kids are 23 months apart, so i missed the mark a bit, and i am still weirdly upset about those 3 months, but that's me just being crazy oh well. I prefer the closer age gap bc i like the idea of them having similar interests and being able to plan things to do together without too much fuss (like you can generally take both a 4 and 6 year old to the playground, that might be harder with a 4 and 8/9 year old) Also, even though I like the baby stage, the idea of getting that all over with at one time is better to me, a rough couple years and then it gets easier. Starting over again when you have gotten through all the diapers and tantrums and the sleeping and the toddler crazy just doesn't jive as much with me. And then you can get rid of all the accumulated random baby stuff! [/quote]
