I have been wondering the same thing actually so its great to read so many replies.

We have friends with different gaps. One friends has her two boys I think 12-15 months apart but she wanted her children close together int he hopes they will ahve a close relationship like her and her older sister.

Other friends have a 2yo and are not thinking about a second yet and another friend has a 15month old and again not thinking of another.

Personally I am in two minds.

DD is 2 months old and i am only just starting to really cope, I would have been a disaster waiting to happen if DH wasn't round the first month - 6 weeks. I would dearly love to have two close in age in the hopes they would have a great relationship. BUT at the same time - it took us so long to have a term pregnancy and DD I want to really enjoy having her and spending time with just her.
Then I flip again and think if we have another while dd is still quite young then maybe she won't get so use to being "the only one" IYKWIM.

My problem is also that DH only wants 2 kids so my next pregnancy (hopefully) will be my last and I am not ready to have my last pregnancy (I secretly want 4 kids )

Its so hard isn't it - good thing I have started renovations again to distract me we cannot fall pregnant until they are finished .
