my sister and i were 18 months apart, my brother 4 years younger. i was closer to my brother growing up.

mine are 10, 8 and 2. it took me a while to get pregnant with #3. its been great!

My kids are 17, 15 and 7. It has worked out great for us. Makes our daughter's departure for college next year much more bearable to think about too! Glad we'll have someone to keep us company for a long time.

I have a sibling with a 22 year old, 21 year old, and a 6 year old.

What you are talking about is hardly a blip.

our youngest two are 6 years apart. I was sort of stressed about it but now that I have this age gap I have noticed 4 other families in my daughter's class that have this exact same age gap! Guess what PP said about youngest going to K creating baby lust is true. LOL

3.5 years is no biggie. I have the opposite situation, my oldest (boy) is 4.5 years older than them the next one and then my third is only 18 months younger. The younger two are girls so they are thick as thieves, but all three will play along well together.

I have a brother who is 2 years younger and one who is 11 years younger. I'm much much closer to the one with the 11 year gap.

My kids are 8, 6, and one is about to turn 2. It's awesome, don't stress about it.

What? The odds that you'll have another boy increase, but only very slightly. Plus, three boys is not a nightmare. It's what we have and many families I know. It feels super easy to me.

You're overthinking this, OP. The age difference isn't that big and, even if it were, it is impossible to predict what they will mean?
