Appropriate Timing

So theres a 4.5  year age difference between my first and my second. But hubby and I want one more baby before I get my tubes tied. I just dont know if they all should be about 4 years apart or maybe 2 years between the second and third. My second baby is 3 months old and my first will be 5  in April.

Like I'm only 22 I'll be 23 in April  and he wants one more when I'm  25 and hubby will  be 28 but idk if I want to wait till my son is close to 4  so they all have the same space.  Cause he thinks having a kid in the 30's will be weird while I'll still be in my 20's

Im having my first baby and I don't plan on having anymore unless my fiance wants too... if he does then I want to wait at least five years.

That's exactly how my little family is. My daughter just turned 4 in Nov and I'm due with this baby in April. We're thinking about having our 3rd be two years apart from this one. Just so they can be closer in age and grow up somewhat together. But we'll see how we feel when the time comes cuz you never know what can happen that'll make us want to wait a little longer
