    I have 1 daughter who will be 2yrs & 4 months when the next 1 comes along. I did think about having another when she was only 1 but life got in the way & we didn't go ahead with it.

    I am the eldest of 4 kids & the age gap is big but it's good because I don't feel like their big sister more like their aunt or 2nd Mum. I was 7 when my 1st brother was born, 11 when my sister was born & 12 when my 2nd brother was born. We are all relatively close & always have been.

    My daughters are 8 and 3. They are 4 years, 9 months, 2 weeks, and 4 days apart. The Christmas before my youngest was born, my oldest asked Santa for a baby sister and in July she had one.

    My children are 12 years apart. I was 23 when I had my son and I was 34 (three weeks away from being 35) when I had my daughter. I love having them that far apart. Even though they are 12 years apart they are very close. Don't give up sometimes the harder you try the worse it is. You never know what God has in store for you. Put it in His hands and see what happens.

    I'm one of 6 kids and our ages are - 35, 34 (me), 29, 26, 24, 19 and 14. So, I'm 20 years older than my youngest sibling and I absolutely love our family. :) I'm pretty sure my Mom hadn't planned on it....but it worked out really well!

    Mine are 3 years apart. Me and my eldest brother are 18 years apart-and we are just fine. Not when we were young obviously, but as we got older we got closer. (my mom had lots of miscarraiges in between children).

    My kids are 8 years apart and it actually has been great. I had an ectopic pregnancy between them. My son was so ready for a sibling he was great with his sister. Now that they are older it is great to see them do things together. He is in law school and she is in high school. They often go to a cafe to study together and take DDR breaks together too. It is nice when the can play more together but it is nice when there is less sibling rivalry to contend with. The main problem is he thinks he is her parent sometimes. Luckily he is a good role model.
    It took us awhile for the second one too. But it has been so great.

    My daughter is 17, and if I could have another one right now, I would. I think it's awesome to get to enjoy all of those childhood fun times twice, especially if you don't feel ready to let all of that go.

    My children are 21, 13 and 12, so there is 8 years between oldest and middle one, but actually 4 days less than a year between middle one and youngest one (ie. youngest will turn 13, 4 days before middle one turns 14...lol

    My older brother and I are 13 months apart, when we were growing up people thought we were twins. We are amazingly close. My younger brother is 20 months younger then me, we get along okay if he's not being a jerk at the moment... (we are currently 19, 18, and seventeen tell my and my older brothers b-days come around in the next two months)

    My stepson and my first daughter are four years four days appart. My first and second daughter are one year, seven months, and twenty-one days appart; they were suposed to be a year and ten months appart. My second daughter and my bio-son are just under seven months apart, needless to say he was very early. My kids are 7, 3, 19 almost 20 months, and 12 almost 13 months.
