My kids might be a year apart. any one eles?

I have 3 children there birthday's are 4/4/05, 4/7/06, 4/3/07, now I am expecting another baby which believe it or not, is actually due 8/28/08.  It is difficult having children close together, the effects:  your body has no time to heal, your wallet will never have time to heal, and your mind stays constantly haywire! But, other than that, I wouldn't trade having my kids close together for anything.  They are extremely close and look out for eachother.  The way I look at it is have them while you're young and you feel like getting down and playing with them.  Let them grow up together and when you're 30 you're almost done raising all of your children LOL! Ok, that is what I had to come up with to keep myself from going insane!  But I do love my children and having them close, I think is the way to go. By the way it's cheaper to have 1 birthday for 2 children, 3 of mine will share a b'day.LOL!

I feel so much better reading all of these answers as it makes me feel less crazy. My oldest daughter was born Jul 05, my second daughter was born Oct 06 and then my beautiful baby boy was born Nov 07.  I am so glad I had them so close together but my friends all think we are nuts, every time I see them now, they joke and ask if i am pregnant again.  As far as i am concerned, I am done.  I wanted to have my kids close together and get all the sleepless nights out the way.  I am 30 and now I can enjoy watching them all grow up and still have energy for them.

I am the oldest of 3 girls and we are all 18 months apart and are all the closest of friends so I wanted the same for my kids.

There are times when it is not easy, my younger daughter is already 18 months and has only this week started walking properly- not easy with a 5 month old baby to look after, but I love them all and I know I made the right decision.

Jeska - how are you feeling about it all now?

I feel so much better knowing I am not in the same boat.  my first child was born 2/3/02 boy, second born 09/02/03 boy, third born 03/02/07boy and now pregnant again.

Hi, a friend of mine has two girls born on january 1st...Exactly one year apart.. Everyone thinks they are twins.. The doctor said they had a better odds of being stuck by lightening than this happening. It's kindda cool i think.. They each have kept their individuality though..  Hey it's so great to have a kid whenever they are born.. I didnt get to have any.. My only regret...Enjoy them all!!

One advantage is that there will only be one birthday party every September, joined party that is.  I have a friend who gave birth January and another one in December of the same year.  She needed all the help she could get.
