That's a really good point. Mine are 19 months apart, and my oldest has always seemed so grown up... but have I forced her to be?

How does anyone survive the crushing guilt of motherhood, OMG? I'd have a glass of wine to drown my guilt, but I'm pregnant with #3! Hahaha!

I have two "bunches"--my oldest boys are 22 months apart, the second set is just a bit over 2 years apart, and then our baby girl is three years younger than the youngest boy. We are co-sleepers, and there's been a lot of pressure to kick the second-youngest to the curb (well, okay, his own bed) right before or after the birth of the current youngest. But each time we've found that it's just...kinder to give the recently-evicted child the option (even if it's not every night) of crawling in bed with Mom and Dad. Right now our son Owen--who's 4 1/2--really seems to need "snuggle" time. But our queen size bed just barely accommodates the two of us adults and our toddler. But I'm with you: even at 4, Owen's not a "big boy" just because he has a baby sibling. We don't let him stay in our bed all night (we'd never sleep if we did!) but I do let him snuggle for a while and sometimes drift off. We move him later but I know it helps him feel secure.

"This baby who still needed 2-3 naps day. This baby who barely ate solid food. This baby who still wasn't crawling."

Yep, this was my baby when we found out we were expecting #2. He isn't here yet, so this is good advice for me about keeping my oldest a baby. because really 15 months is still a baby!

I agree! Thanks for reminding me!

I am grateful for this article. It is just what I needed to ead. Thank you so much for reminding me that my 29month old is still a baby even though she has an 11 month old sister.
