[quote=Anonymous]Most of my friends who have kids every 2 years or so have a SAHM. Our friends who have 2 working parents tend to have larger age gaps. Personally, my brother is 21 years older than me (my mom swears I was planned...but I'm not so sure about that, lol), and my sons are 4 years apart. I had my first when I was 36. Reasons that come to mind are maybe when the 1st kid is around 2, you finally start having more sex again and things start to get easier, breastfeeding, wanting kids close in age so they play better together, having kids in fast succession so you can SAH with them, then return to the workforce when they start school, or if you want lots of kids (my niece has 6, so she had one every 2 years or less once she got married. Her goal was 12 kids, but her husband got sick with ALS, so she stopped at 6). [/quote]
