[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Wait. It's better for your body, the child's health, and sibling rivalry to have a 3+ year gap between siblings. My 1st and 2nd are almost 4 years apart and get along great. No sibling rivalry at all. They play all day together, but now that my oldest is 11, they are getting more independent with different interests. Then there's a 3 year gap between my middle child and youngest twins. They also get along very well. A little more bickering but they interact well 80% of the time. [/quote] When my child was very young, a friend recommended child development books by Dr. Burton White. In the book I read, he argued passionately for a 3+ age gap between siblings.[/quote]
