[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]My first two were exactly 4 years apart and it was amazing. Oldest completely understood that baby's needs are greater, no jealousy or acting out towards baby. My middle and youngest were 2 years apart and OH MY it was much more difficult. Now that they're older the oldest two do fight more, but honestly that's to be expected. Would repeat a 4 year gap again in a second. [/quote] This is funny--we have kids with the same spacing, and I thought the 2 year gap was easier. It probably just depends on the personalities of the kids and parents involved. That being said I don't think a 4 year gap is too big at all. My oldest and youngest (freshman in college and freshman in HS) are super close--they always have been actually, but in the last couple of years I'm seeing more and more geniune friendship between them, not just the sibling bond. It's really cool.[/quote]
