[quote=Anonymous]Mine are not quite 3 years apart (2 yrs 10 months) and it was pretty much perfect. The older was potty trained, into a big girl bed, etc well before the baby was born so there were no problems with feeling like the baby forced changes in her life. She's old enough to understand that she needs to be gentle and that she needs to keep certain toys away from him (now that he's mobile). Also old enough that she can entertain herself for a bit while I'm busy with the baby. Yet they're still close enough in age that I'm hopeful that they can play together as they get older. Right now they adore each other--so hopefully that will continue. I'm younger by a big gap from my sisters and I always wanted a closer aged sibling. In your scenario, I would start TTC aiming for about 2.5 and see how it goes. [/quote]
