Looks like I am going out on a limb here. I really don't personally like the idea of having babies too close together. My eldest 2 are 2 years and 9months apart and then I have a 7 year gap then Noah and Tehya are 2 years and 10 months apart. Now I'm sure not saying go for the 7 year gap, But I think the way I have spaced out my children is great.

I like the idea of having the time to spend with my baby, although it is not undivided I don't have the issues of 2 in nappies, or waiting for one to wean. My SIL has her 2 children 11 months apart, and I used to find it so sad when the eldest who was clearly still a baby needing and wanting attention but not getting it as there was a new bub that needed attending to.

Of course I am sure that there will be people who disagree with me. That's fine, I am just saying that it's not for me. I want to be able to give all of my children my time and attention they need as babies
