HI,
Just curious as too who has the closest age gap between their children here on EB or someone you know. I know it isnt me! Or if you hve had two babies in the one year, different pregnancies of course.

i know its not me either LOL

my boys 18 months apart

Mine are 14 months apart.

2 of my children are 363 days apart.

My eldest two are 14m apart. Will be interesting to know the answer!

17 and a half for my 2.

melissak has 9 or 10 months between her 20 mth Bubba & her handsome little twins.... I'm pretty sure anyway! LOL

I know my mum and her sister (my aunty) are both born in the same year .... 1953!

My aunt was born in January and my mum on Christmas day ... yikes....two pregnancy....same year .... two labours .... same year.... :ohmy:

9 or 10 mths!!! But that would mean she had sex like the same week she gave birth or something like that :ohmy: Even if c/s....still...!!

No not necessarily. She could have had the 2nd baby/ies premmie.

Isn't there a member with 2 sets of twins in the same year? I could be imagining things though...

At the school I teach at, there are kids that are 10 months apart. They are in different years though.
I went to school with a brother and sister who were 11 months apart and both in my year at school.

I have a friend whose bub was born in July this year and her next is due in June...LOL they will be in the same grade at school (in Qld).

My daughter was born 30/09/03 and my son was born 13/09/04 so DS came 17 days before DD was one.

My cousin will have her 2nd child 11 months after her first!

Mad woman IMO!

DH is 11 months younger than his brother. He was an accident - his mum learnt the hard way that BFing wasn't an effective form of contraception!

Hey Flucker, another (*feels dumb now*) that was told BF was an effective contraception method - hence the arrival of DD1 - 11 months after DS1 :ohmy:

I have a friend who fell pregnant again the first time they did the deed 2 weeks after her DS was born. She thought she it wouldn't happen as she was BF'ing :ohmy:

5 years later she now has 2 lovely boys that are very very close in age and the best of friends, but it's also been veeery tough on her.

My Brother was born on the 03/08/90 and my Sister 03/05/91.

Me and my brother are 10 1/2 months apart. I have certainly not taken the same road as my mum as my 2 are 7 and 1/2 years apart.

Ladybeetle, yes, premmies, I had not thought of that

All going well, there will be 11.5mths between our DD & #2
Was a tiny surprise to say the least....

My sister's 2 daughters are 40 weeks and 1 day apart. DD2 was 10 weeks prem. And no, she doesn't cope even now when the youngest is 2.

My friend has a little girl who just turned 1 and had a baby boy 6 weeks ago. 10.5 months.

Mine are under a minute LOL!

Seriously though we know a brother and a sister just under 9 months difference in age on the calendar- the younger one was premmie.

We have 10.5 months apart, DD3 born Jan 03 and DD4 born Nov 03

Goodness - people still fall for this?
My Grandmother proved this one wrong over 55 years ago - hence the 13 month age gap between my mum and her brother.

My 2 youngest are 13.5 months apart. I wouldn't wish it on anyone!

:ohmy: I certainly will be making sure the 'gloves' are out!

My brother and I are 9 mins apart :biggrin:

My older 2 brothers are 15 months apart.

There is a member on here that had a very premmie daughter not to long ago and is pregnant again I cant imagine that she would carry full term as she never has before so she could end up with 2 as little as 7 months apart I dont know how far pregnant she is.

Juliavc Thanx for that LOL, you made my day. hahaha

Anyway yep, my DS and baby #3 will be roughly 13 months apart. Baby is due 1 month after DS 1st birthday and then DD will turn 3 around 1 month after baby is born

dd1-dd2: 22 months
dd2-ds1: 11 months 3 weeks
ds1-dd3: 2 minutes :biggrin:

I know a woman who had her first child in June 02. Got pg just a couple of months later with twins, and they were born April 03, so 10 month gap. Somehow, despite the rigours of raising 3 under 12 months, she got pg again not long after the twins were born, and gave birth do a premature daughter in January 04, so a 9 month gap there. That makes 19 months between #1 and #4.

And to think some of us AIM for that and still can't get any closer than 2 years!

I have 13 months to the day between my youngest two - 29/4/05 & 29/05/06!

Had A/C for my DS2 & a totally natural surprise for DD2!

DD2 is 7 months old now & I have to admit I've found it easier than I thought it would be. The pregnancy was pretty hard though...

My great Aunt and I were a day apart.

My cousin and i were a day apart. Would have been same day but my auty had some complications. Apparently it was a funny day as my dad wasnt home when my mum went into labour. My uncle had to take my aunty up to the hospital and then shortly after had to leave to go get my mum and take her up too...Man i wish i'd seen the nurses/doctors faces when he walked in the 2nd time LOL...

hi there,
my boys are 12mths,2wks and 2days apart and number 3 on the way that will be 3 under 2&1/2..
GOD HELP ME!!!! LOL

I know a friend that has five kids: first born Oct 1999, second born dec 2000, third born nov 2001, forth born sept 2002, and five born aug 2004. Glad that is not me!!!

Edited for spelling mistakes

My cousin has her first baby on 3 Oct 2005 and gave birth to twin girls on 8 Oct 2006 - so 12 months between them!

Not me, but my ex-SIL's two boys are under 10 months apart. And yes, full term

(What WAS she doing having sex????)

Cheers

My friend has 9.5 mths between her two boys. They were suppose to be 11 mths apart but her second boy arrived 6 wks early.

I have three DD the first two are 15 mths apart and the next 2 are 16 mths apart. My youngest is now 20 mths. My eldest was just 2.8mths when our third DD was born. We are now complete DH had V.

This was my first Christmas in 4 yrs not pregnant or bf. I did enjoy both the prawns and drinks Chrissy day.

I have a 14.5 month gap between DS2 & DS3.

It is a lot easier than I thought it would be...I said to DH that I could do it again :ohmy:

2 stories to tell here - 1 is my brother and sister in law who had 4 kids in 5 years, 3 weeks. The first 2 were almost exactly a year apart.

Also an ex-boss who had 4 in 2 1/2 years, 1 then after 10 months twins, 13 months later another.

Both crazy houses trust me!

mine are 15 months apart.... and no i would not wish it on anyone either..

I could not imagine having a 10 month old and a newborn.. OMG

15 months was close enough for me (too close actually..)

Bit late I know, but my boys are 11 months 4 days apart. In my own defence I was on the mini pill too....

The question was 'who has the closest age gap on eb' not who knows someone that does! Anyway, us crazy woman had a buddy group once upon a time, there was a few 10 monthers around.

There is an EB member with twins who were born in February, and then they had ANOTHER set of twins in December OF THE SAME YEAR!!! (Plus they had a 2yo when the first set of twins were born)


ETA: Just to get in the spirit. Emily and Kaitlyn are 19 minutes apart...

WOW I didn't realise there was so many of us with close age gaps.

I came home from hospital with DS2 on DS1's 1st birthday. (And we had people over for his birthday that night (am I crazy or what???) My boys are 362 days apart.

And yep I was another who was naive enough to think that breastfeeding was adequate contraception.

we have lovely precious kyra @ 5 months, and we are expecting another little bundle of joy soon.kyra was born 13 weeks early and our new bundle was concevied prior to kyras due date. if our new precious bundle goes full term(which we doubt but hope) she or he will be born on the 8th of july making kyra 11 months old however if he or she comes early like the other 3 kyra will be 8 - 9 months old.......... so there ya go... by the way this is the dh (haha darling husband i getting in with the lingo ladies).and i couldnt be more happier, but will be getting a certain (snip) ouchies after it all happens lolololol

wittle_bugssy, I hope you get your 11 month gap! Otherwise, I think you are the winner!!!

I'm not even in the running for this but just wanted to say a big congrats to Wittle Bugssy !! Wishing you a long, boring pregnancy!! If you can aim for 40 weeks and 1 day - he/she can share my birthday!!

(Just as a note though - my Aunty had her two girls 10 months apart so that they could grow up friends together - they've hated each other since the second they came out of the womb!! Couldn't get to two girls any different if you tried!!)
