How far apart are your kids?

I am currently almost 33 weeks pregnant (due March 19th) and my daughter just turned 1 a week ago. I'm really nervous about how hard this is going to be! Anyone have kids that are 14 months apart? Was it hard?

I am due the same day! My first two are 18 months apart. 15 months after number 2 I am expecting number 3. I expect this next year to be full of chaos and just not to get anything done. My experience with an 18 month gap was that being so young the first was really quick to accept life with a sibling and it was remarkably smooth in that department (don't if personality had a lot to do with it?)

Mine will be 2 years and 4 months apart. I have a friend that has 2 boys that are 11 months apart. It does get chaotic but they are so close and have a built in playmate.

My son is two and I'm six weeks pregnant now. I worried about the same thing especially since he's used to be the baby in my family. Every one dotes on him and when this baby comes I'm afraid he's going to feel differently

16 & 11..

My first 2 are 5 yrs apart. No regrets really. I've always thought every child/parent should have enough time to spend with each other b4 another comes. Now I'm expecting my 3rd (due 3/12) but didn't want to wait this long to have him.. so I may have another 3 yrs from now God willing. Don't worry about the small stuff your a woman who's a strong mommy. If you can withstand pregnancy & its symptoms for 9+ months and delivery you can do ANYTHING!

Mine are 14 months apart and it was so lovely to watch them grow together. They are 7 and 8 now (another on the way) and they are so close. No regrets having them close together it was easier than I thought xx

Mine is 8 and I am due in May. She has been waiting and waiting to be a big sis.
But, my brother and I are exactly 15months apart, we were very close.
My mom had him excited that I was coming- I was 'his' baby. He was glad to step up to be the big boy brother for the helpless baby.
As long as you treat your older baby her age instead of making her grow up, then things should be smooth.
