Big gap between children.. TTC#2!

[ttc19]

Tell me about your big age gaps. DC is currently 5 & we're TTC#2. There's so much negativity around having a big gap but it's what suited us best with regards to PND, Career progression, Financial stability etc. I need to know I'm not the only one!

My ds1 is 17 DD is 13 ds is 7 and me and my new partner or trying now

Not me personally, but I know a few! One of my friends has a 17.5 year gap between her DC1 and DC2! She was 19 when she had her DC1. Another has 13.5 years between her DC1 and DC2. In DS's class at primary, a mum had 3 children, all 9 years apart. There were also a couple of others who had 6 or 7 year age gaps.

I have a 16 year old, a 14 year old, a 1 year old and a 2 week old. I love both the small gaps and the big one - the teens are really good with the babies!
