    My two babies are 18 months apart. I love the gap. It is hard at times, like when they are both sick and dh has had to help alot but I wouldn't change it for the world. The way they love each other and interacts each other makes it all worth it. There is 4 yrs between dsd and ds and I personally have found the 18 mth gap easier than the 4 yr gap. Ds has never been jealous of dd and they play really well. There will be 15 mth gap between dd and this bb and I'm really looking forward to having them all close together. I know what you mean about the negative stuff. With each kid you have, the more you get it . The next person who says something negative to me about having 3 kids or having 3 under 3 I'm going to scream at. Good luck TTC.

    Thanks so much to all of you who have taken the time to reply. I really appreciate you all sharing your stories and you have helped me get rid of all the negativity I have heard recently and made me start to focus on the positives again.

    Now I just we have an easier time TTC than last time and we can add to our little family soon

    I loved it so much when I had Dudie and Mario that I went back and had an even closer age gap between mini me and tank.

    Yeah its hard...hard when you dont have any support form family so make sure you have that.. but its so worthwhile though. I love that the kids not only have a brother or sister close in age to them, that they have a best friend at the same time.
    I use to always get asked if dudie and mario were twins and I use to take offense to it..I now also get it with mini me and tank now and can laugh at it. Sad thing is...they DO look like twins
    With dudie and mario we started trying when dudie was 6 months old...they are exactly 18 months apart
    with mini me and tank we started trying when mini me was 4 months old and fell with twins but sadly lost then early....we were willing to wait 6 months but tank had other ideas. They are 16 months apart
    Jed knows if I could we'd have more...and I couldnt stop at just one more I dont think ...cause Id need a close age gap again
