Don’t rush to have the third if you’re not ready. Plenty of us have a little bigger gap between 2 and 3, and it’s great. My first two were less than 2 years apart and my second was 3.5 when third was born. They’re a little crew and get along well together. My oldest reads to his little sister and they all snuggled up to watch Frozen 2 this afternoon. Playing teacher and students is a big past time right now. Kids don’t have to be 2 years apart to play together. So have your third when it’s right for you.

We had twins, singleton 2.5 years later, singleton 2 years later. I hate pregnancy with a passion and don't like the baby stage either so it was nice to go through that sort of 'all at once' and then come out the other side with a fun crew that could all more or less enjoy the same things.

Mine will be 3 and almost 2 when #3 comes. So I packed them in. But i wanted them to be able to enjoy the same experiences growing up, not have one be the baby that just gets dragged around to whatever the big kids are doing / enjoy at that age. And I want to be able to do some active family trips and summer experiences when they're all in that sweet spot of not being little kids but also not totally over family time yet. Not a judgment against biggest spacing, there are merits to that too, just how I viewed it
