My oldest is 12 yrs old and my youngest is 11 months. I'm 24 weeks pregnant now. Its been a blessing having the age difference like this. My oldest is a big help.

My daughter is 8. I'm also glad to see I'm not the only one in this boat. Do people ask you if you got pregnant on accident? When people find out the she gap between my kids that's always the first thing they ask.

My daughter is 13 and my son will be 11 in April. Our baby boy will be born in July. They are both so excited! They are both at the age where they can help out as well. :-)

I was a little worried about starting over. My son will be 8 when I have my second. I am starting to feel better about it and he couldn't be more excited. I think it will help(the age gap)as far as jealousy goes.
