My baby is 16 months. Everyone is asking me when I'm going to have another. I had PND with him quite badly but nonetheless I always said I wanted a big gap between kids. I know I wouldn't be able to cope with two in nappies, two not sleeping etc...honestly it would be my worst nightmare. I want to wait at least 3-4 years before we have another. Also we are in a v small flat, won't be able to move for at least 2 years.
Everyone keeps looking at me like this saying oh but they won't get along etc etc. There are 5 years between my sister and I and 8 years between my brother and I and we are all really close - surely this just depends on the individual personalities and family circumstances!
I am still young so I do have time but why is everyone so obsessive with wanting small age gaps? It's not right for us.
