hi all
just want to keep writing and initiating a new topic.
what ur suggesions about planning second baby what will be a ideal gap. ck replied. I think the gap can be 3 to 5 years. Before that it will be overwhelming to handle two similar aged kids. Also one kid will find the other as a competetor, so more quarrel. If the older one is 4, he might see his friends having younger siblings and would want to have one of his/her own. I hv seen lot of older brother/sister taking care of the younger one. I grew up in such a situation and I love it till now. Also younger one will try to be more matured, learn things faster from older one, want to go to school etc. which is good. This is my opinion. surabhi replied. Hi Shell,
I think now is the perfect time, bcos gap will be around 2 years.l
Sometimes I think I should start thinking of second baby, but I guess it will require lot of courage, as first one is becoming more and more demanding day be day..

this is a very good question. i guess 2-4yrs gap is ideal. i think lesser the gap between the sibblings more understanding they would have (as same age same wave lenght).
also since r lifes still have diapers & sippers & messe rooms, we will be done with both together.

i feel if we have larger gaps, then we will spend few yrs training the 1st one & then spend some other yrs for the second. in the bargain the elder one will always feel the the youger one is still too small to play with.

actually my sis in law has 2 sons with a gap of 6yrs & she said that its a pain making them come to a conclusion. they both have different movie taste ie one wants cartoons or animated movies the other one wants fighting movies, one is champion in cricket & the youger one is still learning ie they dont like to play with each other... she also said that she had almost lost touch abt babies when she got the second child. she could not understand y her son was crying untill doc said its colic, also she had forgotten all little home remedies for curing small probs.
also in the begining the elder son could not take someone intruding his family coz he was 6 & old enough to reason out y's n how's.

frens pl. write in ur point of view also so that we can know what to do.

rest all is fine, love to ur cuties,
Jayna.
