Is it a big jump going from having 1 to having 2?

I found it took more getting used to going from 1 to 2 than going from 2 to 3 etc.
It's just about learning to divide your time between them really once you've got that then I think you've cracked it

2 years 4 months. Lovely in some ways as they have always been easy to entertain together (except pottery painting! Little one doesn't have interest in that) they play together all the time (6 And 4yrs now)

I felt really guilty for my then 2yo when baby was born and found the sleeplessness hard. naps did coincide together for a while that was nice!

2.8 months between my 2. Wouldn't recommend it! Having a toddler and baby at the same time was very hard!

I have a 19 month gap between 1&2 then a 4 year gap between 2&3. I prefer the smaller gap even though it was hard work at the time, I find the larger gap harder now they’re older!
