It's true that there are challenges - J isn't super verbal and still very babyish in some ways, not to mention the diapers - but there has been almost zero jealousy, probably because he's so young and doesn't remember or dwell on what life was like before H came home. </p> <p>I don't know what it's like to have that 3 year gap, and honestly that's what we're going for when we have a third because I do think it's probably easier in many ways - but J just loves "the baby" and I think it's going to be very sweet to see them grow up so close together. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/tell-me-about-a-two-year-gap#post-2063570 Tue, 10 Feb 2015 22:57:55 +0000 Mrs. Jacks 2063570@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>21 months. The first couple weeks were hard, but quickly #1 forgot what life was like without #2. The hardest part was the potty regression, but I doubt it will be as bad for you because your daughter will be a little older. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/tell-me-about-a-two-year-gap#post-2063565 Tue, 10 Feb 2015 22:54:49 +0000 Mrs. Chocolate 2063565@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I wont lie, Im scared! My daughter will be just over two when this next one comes. When my daughter was born my son was newly three and I guess Im just more comfortable with that age gap. Three just seems so much older than two. Also my daughter is really needy and cuddly am Im just a little sad for her. Tell me it will be ok...and easy lol My son will be 5 and starting school shortly after the baby is born so itll just be my daughter and baby home with me most of the day </p>
