I think it just depends on the couple. There`s no set `right` amount of time that applies for everyone. We wanted ours to be 18 months or less apart, but that didn`t work out so now we`re shooting for 2 years...

When I have this baby my dd will be 18 months old. I wanted them no more than 2 yrs apart because I have one sis and she is 5 yrs older than me and it was like I didn`t even have a sibling until I was about 15 and then we kkkkinda started becoming friends. I want my children to go thru the same (for the most part) stages together, be there for each other and hopefully be friends. My husband has 3 sister, all very close in age and they are SUPER close. I`m hoping for that.

two years or less. All of my brothers and sisters are two years apart. We get alone fantastically and I loved being close in age!

Whenever you`re ready. I gave birth in December and we`re going to start trying for #2 in August.

We are going to start trying in november and my daughter turns 2 in december

Ideally, I would say 3 years. However, mine are going to be exactly one year apart. My due date is my daughter Olivia`s birthday.

I think it depends on what type of person you are. I personally wanted to wait and enjoy my first fully and then when he was more independent and going to school I started trying again. I`m glad that when our second one comes along my son will be in school full time and I`ll be able to focus all my attention on the baby during the day.

i started ttc when each of mine were about 12 months. they are 15,13,11,and 9. it is very easy for me to get pregnant, so it always happened w/in 2 months. i love how close in age they all are.

We started TTC when my son was 12 months old, and my second son was born when he was 22 months, its busy thats all I can say lol!! we want a 3rd child but will wait until this last one is 2 before we start TTC.

My closest two are 4.5 years apart and I wouldnt have it any other way!! :) It is SO much easier when one is about to go to school when the 2nd comes along :)

amber325 (973.7 days ago)
I am going to TTC when Olivia is 15 months old she when I deliver she will be 2 2 1/2 and hopefully potty trained lol

angie2008 (973.7 days ago)
I`ve been asking this question as well and the general consensus from very differnt types of people say 2 years apart. That wasn`t an option.

canadababy (973.7 days ago)
We`re going to start trying again when our LO is 5months :) In Canada we get a yr off work (I`m off until Jan2010) and I have to go back for 4months to get that yr off again (until May2010)...so we`re trying to time it that my new Maternity Leave will begin when I done my 4months back at work. Hoping for a June-ish baby. We always wanted them close together anyway, we`re both not getting any younger and feel they`ll be really close friends being closer in age.

  1. ok ladies, my pictures are all gone from my profile but my blogs and polls are still there,.. i have been waiting to see if it was just a glitch and they would come back but they havent.. do i need to make a new profile to fix it?

  5. My friend has just started taking fertility tablets which the DR said could increase her chances of having twins by 10%. Did this work for any of you and did you have twins?
  6. OMG, I posted on FB (in reponse to a suggestion made to me on From Our House To Yours) that I didn`t like a business because the items were very expensive and my friend got a bad deal there and the owner is threatening to sue me! Have you ever heard of such a thing? I actually paid a consultation fee and my lawyer told me that she was `absurd with possible mental health problems.` I am protected by the fisrt ammendment to express my honest opinions freely where I choose, but he said she can take it to court(because people can TRY to sue over anything) anyway and that it might cost me legal bills. We will both be out a lot of money because she couldn`t possibly win. Can you believe that? FML! First my records and now this! I hope my baby isn`t a bad luck baby. I see people not recommending or recommending businesses all the time on FB!
  7. Is SaraKelly still on here? I know she was a mod but I didn`t see her post in the previous Who Is A Mod poll...
  8. ANGRY!!!! My jenakers account is missing my ENTIRE journal from my high risk pregnancy and my letthisonestick account for my 7 month old is completely gone along with my journal. I AM SICK OVER IT!
  9. I`ve re-thought the moderating of the member-postings. How does this sound? Let`s change it to usage, rather than length of time as a member. Say your first 10 or 20 polls, questions and pictures need to be approved by a Mod or something like that. Someone posting the racist polls and adding the kiddie porn is unlikely to participate as a normal member. Once you are verified as a regular member you`re no longer monitored.
  10. How long did it take you to get pregnant after you got your IUD (Mirena) out?
