There is 17 months between Olivia and Charlie, and whilst she adjusted no probs when he was a newborn, she was still not walking until 19 months, so that was tough. She is now 2 and a half as he is coming up to his first birthday and they ADORE each other & it is perfect.

I am pg with #3 (not exactly planned, LOL!) and there will only be 14 months between Charlie and his baby sister......so I have no idea how that'll go.....but I shall have 3 under 3....so I only hope we all stay sane!!

I am not sure there is an "ideal" age gap.....swings and roundabouts with all gaps I think.......
