Best age gap

What do people think is the best age gap to have children? All I know if that I want 2, fairly close together / not big gaps like 5/6 years.

I have a 5 month old baby mow, had a c-section so was advised to wait a year before TTC again. So if we fell straight away then there would be less than 2 years between them - would that be a nightmare?

Well I have 14 months between mine. Not recommended! The first year of DC2 was hell on Earth.

I think 2.5-3yrs would be lush.

I've a 4 year gap and a 20 month gap. The shorter gap is easier I think 😊, but then so much depends on their personalities/your situation, that honestly whatever gap ends up happening will be fine!
