Age gap between children?

[Loulou946]

Has anyone else got an age gap, we have 11, 8 & almost 2yr old boys. Things are great currently but I’m wondering how things might go in 5-10yrs time.
Mainly for the youngest, I can’t expect teens to want to play etc with a younger child but hopefully they will have their own bond.
Trying to decide whether to stay as we are- easier on us or go for 1 more so youngest has someone to grow up with closer to his age.
Thanks

Each persons experience is different, if my kids get on yours may not and vice versa can’t base that in a reason to have another or not. It depends on their personalities.

6 year gap between my youngest 2 boys. Now 12 and 6 and still best mates!!

13 years between my two. My eldest is very close to her younger brother.

My siblings are 15 years, 12 years, 18 months older than me and my twin is 8 minutes younger. Get on with brother 12 yes older and my twin the best. It’s our personalities that count, not the age gap really!

Thank you all, yes I’ve seen it said lots about it been personality more so. Think I just feel abit guilty/worried about the younger 1. I grew up eldest to my 7yrs younger brother & he wasn’t the easiest of kids! Mostly annoying kid stuff & abit naughty! But we do have a good relationship now & I definitely wouldn’t be without him & glad I have him. So it all worked out in the end! Just those awkward teen yrs I think on my part clashing with his boisterous irritating kid side haha.
I wouldn’t mind having another- I’ve always wanted a big family as I only have my brother & my mum. I love my kids & love the younger yrs but also do feel the stress when the tough stages come & it would be nice not to have to do the sleepless nights etc again!
It’s so 50/50 one side it’s a relief thinking I never have to parent a baby or toddler again (aside from grandchildren) the other is wistful romaticsised idea of another & for my youngest to grow up with someone.

But yes I know it likely Wouldn’t work out that way, &/or it would just be very stressful, at least for a couple of yrs. I have this window where we can ttc & it’s hard to know which way to go.
Thank you all for taking the time to reply
