I'm sure this topic has been talked to death but I think I need some advice. I have to sons and have just found out that I'm expecting another baby. My first son is 2 1/2 and the second has just turned 1. The age gap between them is just under 18 months. The diffewrence between DS2 and the new baby will be 21 months.
What are want to know is not just how you made it through but what have the effects been on the children? If any. We planned this pregnancy with the notion that the first two are close in age and so we didn't want to leave too big a gap between any subsequent children (as happened in my family). But now I'm worried about academics, emotional, social and physical development. I guess just behaviour in general.
