My bf and all of his siblings are all ten years apart
I have an 18,15,14,8 and 4yr old all is well
I have two girls. 19 and 6. They are bestfriends and it’s so amazing. I think itll be a blessing for all of you!
A baby is always a blessing!
My daughter is 10 years old and my son is 11 months old. No other kids in between. My daughter loves her little brother very very much. I make sure to give her plenty of 1:1 attention. I rarely ask her to help with the baby, I let her choose when she wants to help. It definitely was an adjustment at the beginning but it all worked out! Make sure to include in as much as you can with the pregnancy. Most important thing is making sure she knows she is loved and not forgotten!!
Our oldest is 11. I just gave birth to our youngest(4th heathen) in July. And he loves him so much. And he’s always trying to help as much as he can. Our other two are 7 and 5. And they are the same also.
My kids are 21 yrs apart and they truly love each other.
Its the best thing ever my eldest is 23 and my baby is 2 and they are so loving and protective of the baby she calls my older one mama sometimes …i might say our baby is very spoilt by her older siblings 
Congratulations they will be the closest
8 and 8 months! It’s absolutely wonderful
My children are ages: 23 years old, 8 years old, and 3 years old.
Their bonds are amazing
My daughters are 9 years apart. I was scared to tell my oldest that I was having another baby. That was 2 years ago and they are super close and she loves her little sister.
Me and my brother are 16years apart
Me and my brother are 12 years apart I don’t have any complaints from when I was younger
I’m 10 years younger than my brother and our relationship has always been great.
Almost 9 years apart and they are best friends!

I have a 10 year gap between my youngest and her next sibling (18 and 8) and a 20 year gap (28 and 8) between youngest and my oldest. It was way different for my youngest but I was also 39 with my last. My youngest and the older kids get along pretty well. They look out for her a lot. With each of my kids (I have 4 and 3 bonus kids) I made sure they knew they could help out when possible and if they needed time to spend with me to just let me know. Life with a little one can get so busy and I wanted to make sure they each knew I would set time aside for them no matter what.
My surviving children are 11 years apart I was gifted them in God’s timing. Had special time with each one.
My oldest 12, my youngest is 2. They’re completely inseparable! My tot adores his big brother and looks up to him and big brother does any and everything for his little brother. I was worried too at first, but it’s been so amazing. Not to mention my oldest wants to help with everything! Everything will be ok. 
I have a sister that is 10 years older then me. She was an awsome big sister growing up! Now I’m 30 and shes 40 and we are still very close. We have siblings in between us but I have always felt closer to her. I think it depends on who you are
I love my baby brother always have done and hes 10 years younger than me. We are 36 and 26 now x
Mine were 11 and 13 when I got pregnant and had another baby, they love her to pieces and it has been awesome!!
Mine are almost 7 years a part and when she was born my oldest said “I just waited so long for you”. It’ll be fine!
My kids are 18,12 and 20 months. They have a great relationship with each other
Me and my sisters are 22 and 24 years apart. I love them so much and they have always treated me with love unlike they did with each other when they were growing up together 
My oldest is 13. My two Littles are 21 months and 5 months. I think as long as he’s not asked to help too much he likes having little siblings. He plays with them a lot. He offers to help a lot actually. I just try to not ask him for help much beyond what he asks.
Just make sure you set aside time for her and it should be ok. Also if you include her in baby stuff - like memories wise. I let my son help teach my daughter how to walk so he felt like he helped his little sister do that! It made it more special for him
Honestly it’s amazing. I have another in between but my 10 year old is the biggest help.
I was the youngest. My oldest sister is 14 years older than me. It was different. By the time I was 4 she had moved out. My other sister was 10 years older and I was just her babydoll. It kind of sucked cause by the time I was old enough to actually hang out with them they had already moved out.
My brother and I are 10 years apart and I loved it and still do. I definitely took on a little mommy role when I was younger and I love him to death now and we have a great relationship. I don’t think we ever fought once
Kids are always a blessing no matter what ! It will be fun , enjoy it . Involve your daughter 
I have them 8 years apart. One is 12 the other 4. Surprisingly went well. My 12 year old loves his little brother and is good with him. Now my 12 and 8 year old constantly fight.
I have boys who are 8 years apart. At first there was a bit of jealousy but as they got older it got better. Now they are best of friends.
My daughter and bonus daughter are 10 years and 6 months apart. My daughter is 6 and I have a son who will be 3 a month from tomorrow. Their bigs sister absolutely adores them.
Almost 10 years in between. I love the bond they share!!
My girls are 9 and 2 weeks. There was a little bit of jealousy at first but now she helps out with the baby. Just make sure you have 1 on 1 time with your older kiddos too.
My kids 16, 14, 6 and 5. All are really close and get along great. The oldest love having younger siblings it’s been great. You are a family…it’ll be great!
It’s the best thing ever(in my opinion). My son and daughter are 12 years apart. I don’t have to worry about them “fighting” over toys,and tormenting each other on car rides and stuff like that. If I weren’t so old,I would wait another 12 years and have another😂
It’s not as bad, when one is withdrawing from being with mommy you get more focus on the baby. Each ones needs varies. And it works. Mum of 21, 12, 5
I have a 14 yr old , 11 yr old & 10 month old & i was worried too but the bond they have with the baby is incredible & she loves her big sisters soooo much!!
My boys are 17 & 11 we had our little girl in January (7months now) and her big brothers are great with her xx
My partners kids are 13,10 and 9… I’m pregnant with our baby now and they’re delighted not only will baby have fun with them but I’ll also have helping little hands
I just had a baby 2 months ago and I have a 13,11,9 year old and I thought it was going to be rough but it’s great they love helping out with her and they love having a baby it will be great.
16 years between my two. My daughter is 17 and son is 1. It was a struggle at first but now my son is a little older, she has taken more interest. They are closer now, hopefully they will become closer as he gets a little older
Mine are 10 years apart (oldest is a girl, youngest a boy) and honestly, they aren’t as close as I wish they were. They are 6 & 16 now & of course their personalities are so different & interests at these ages. It was like starting all over for me too. So much changed with having a baby in 10 years. It’ll be ok! I think they’ll bond when they’re older.
I have a 23, 13 and 7 yr …the 13 and 7 fight constantly…opposite sexes but my oldest is like a mentor to them…at first she wasn’t thrilled but they have a great bond with her…
My son and daughter are 10 years apart…almost to the day. Anyway, it’s been really great. He is so sensitive to her and loves to care for her and loves her big brother. All children handle things differently. Praying that the experience is wonderful for you and your babies!
I have an 18 year old and a 5 year old. They are both boys but never had any issues. Except when I called the 18 year old by his nickname one time and his brother has called him that ever since.
I’m 13 years apart from my brother I took care of him and as we got older not much in common but he comes over my house and I take him to do things people think he’s my son lol. Right now I’m 25 and he’s 12
My daughter was 11 when I had my last one. She absolutely fell in love the first moment of seeing him and I say she’s like his second mommy. My middle child was 7 (a boy) at the time and they’re relationship is also great! I think having some distance helps bc the older ones are good help, plus he’s the baby so of course he’s rotten and has everyone wrapped around his finger good luck and congratulations momma!
My younger sister and I are 11 years apart. It isnt so bad 
I was 20 yr old when my mom whos was 40 yr old gotten pregnant with her 6th child. No problems. Have the older child help out so there isn’t much of drift between them. Heck my oldest is 3 yrs old while his uncle is now 7 yr old.
I am ten years older than my baby brother and we are super close!!
When my kids were 12 and 14 I had another baby. It worked out just fine. There wassn’t a choice!
Mine are 21,14,13,3 lol the teens were huge helps for me and there dad they love there’d little brother that’s there son lol
I have a 15, 12, 6 and a two year old boys. My older kids help out because they love too. My 2 year old has bonded great with my two oldest, they are best of buds. He has bonded with the 6 year old but he fights with him non stop. 
. My oldest absolutely loves showing off his little brothers at high school events and sports. If I could do it again I would put more age gap between the two older ones.
I don’t think that’s bad at all. Actually your daughter will be a huge help. She’ll want to help change diapers and hold and feed her baby brother/sister. She’ll love the baby.
My son is 10 years older than my daughter . He adores her and she worships him.
I have an adopted 23yo, a 16yo and a 6yo all girls. They love each other and get along very well!!
I had my first at 24 then my last at 34. I have 4 boys! They all love each other & help each other out when needed. The biggest even helps out with my littlest 
My boys are 10 years apart from their sisters and they have a good relationship
My kids are 8 years apart and it is quite the disruption to be honest not gonna lie especially while out doing stuff but it’s still great just a big adjustment
I have a 10 month old and a 10 year old. So far its great. He LOVES being a big brother. He helps as much as he can (although he won’t change dirty diaper) watches him when I quickly need to deal with things. I was worried at first and I’m sure as they get older things may change but so far so good. 
I am 10 years older than my brother, and loved it
Me and my brother have a 12 year age difference and we are super close. He sleeps over, we go out and do things together, he confides in me. We’re best friends
I have an 8 year old daughter and just had a baby girl last month. I was SO concerned about this, but OMG, my daughter is head over heels with her baby sister. I’ve never seen this side of her. My husband and his sister are 10 years apart and the best of friends!
My sister is 13 years older than me. She left as soon as she could and never looked back. I mean I see her and stuff now but as a kid she was in college. She was off doing her own thing. She is more a mother or aunt figure to me than sister. I feel like I was an only child. But that’s just my experience. My son will be 9 in 12 days and I’m currently 20 weeks pregnant. We wanted another sooner so they wouldn’t be so far apart but I had three miscarriages.

My brothers are 10 and 13 years older than I. Never close to the one 13 years older, but good relationship with the one 10 years older.
My brother and I are 10 years apart. We have a great relationship! It took until adulthood to get there but our childhood wasn’t great our parents sucked. He always had to babysit me and stuff but we got along for the most part because we had to but now that we are adults we’re like besties.
Im 33 and i have a 7 year old brother and a newly adopted 4 year old brother.
My son and his brother wil also be 10years apart. But he cant wait for his baby brother to be born. By due date is 2 weeks after he turns 10. include her in everything… ultrasounds the feeling when baby moves. Let her choose going home clothing for when in hospital. Let her tell stories to her baby brother or sister. This helped my boys to bond. Baby moves alot when his brother speaks too him.

I have all girls. 19, 15, 11 and 8. The oldest and youngest tolerate eachother. Lol. … but my youngest loves having older sisters
My oldest was 10 when I had my middle daughter and I loved it she was super helpful and since she was more independent I was able to focus a little more on her sister since she didn’t need me for every little thing
I just had my second son 9 years after having my first. It’s great actually, my oldest loves him so much and helps us out a lot!
I am almost 11 years older than my youngest sister and we have a very close relationship, I’m 26 she is almost 16. I’m more of a second mom to her though.
I’m 8 years older than my brother- and according to my mum it was great as I was old enough to properly help and want to help xxx
I’m 12 years older than my baby sister. I’m 23 right now and she’s 11. I’m her second mom basically and I wouldn’t change it. However, I did hate being expected to help with feeding and changing diapers so my advice is don’t force that.
My boys are 10 yrs. apart. There is my oldest and then the twins. My oldest loved having little brothers and the twins idolized their Big brother. There were a few awkward stages during the oldest brothers teen years but now that they are all adults they couldn’t be closer! Don’t stress over the age difference…it will work it’s way out.
Mine r 8 years apart and they have a great bond
My kids are 21 years apart. I have a 25 year old and a 4 year old. For me it’s like starting over. It’s like it’s your first time being a mom. I had to learn a lot of things over
My two are 16 yrs…the baby just turned 1…and his older brother loves him and sometimes you’d think the baby was his
Well the plus side is they will be a protector to their younger sibling and can help alot.
My sister and I are 10 years apart. I’ve adored her since the day she was born. our age gap has never been a issue.
I have 6 children ,the eldest one’s were a great help, my eldest is 27 with her own family now and my youngest is 8 , her children( my grandchildren) have a lovely close bond too almost like brothers and sisters ,my other older children also have great bonds with my youngest, it’s lovely
I am 8 years older than my sister I kinda just baby sat in my young teens and wasnt about it but I do love my sister just not much in common
My son is 10 years 10 months older than my daughter. He is 20, and she is 9. Its hard starting all over but its still great. My son absolutely loves his sister.
My stepson is 12 years old then our “ours” baby and they are best friends
My sister and I are eight years apart and we’re each other’s best friend. Her and my brother are 12 years apart and they are semi close. At first I was mad when my parents told us they were pregnant but I can’t imagine my life without her.
maybe at 1st she’s gonna b a bit moody about it, but eventually she will come around and love baby to death! mine are 23, 20, then 12, and 10. the 2 older ones cannot live without the smaller ones although at 1st they would’ve easily shipped them off to the Pacific! my 20 year old got a 3 bedroom house when she got married, and believe it or not one bedroom is just for her little siblings! she’s constantly asking them over and taking them out to eat etc. just make sure u DO NOT force her to babysit or do stuff ur meant to do for the baby bcz sometimes they are the opposite when u cross that thin line
I was exactly ten when my younger brother was born and it was so wonderful to have baby in the house. We’ve always been close and still are as adults.
My brother is 24 years younger than me and my sister is 20 years younger
I had two within 14 months and ten years later my youngest son was born. The older two loved him and my two boys are very close. Even though they’re now adults.
My step son is 10 years older than my daughter and 16 years older than my son, my biological children are 6 years apart. Ive raised my stepnson since he was 7. It was never an issue. My kids “mother/father” each other. Sometimes my daughter forgets she’s not the parent amd trys to discipline her younger brother, but i wouldn’t change thing it gave me a chance to enjoy my kids as babies amd toddlers
Mine are 14 years apart. It’s basically for me like raising two separate families. My older son is 18 and graduated this year. For the last 4.5 years he’s had more of a parental told with his baby brother than brotherly. He plays with him but takes care of him and keeps him safe and corrects him even if need be. My stepdaughter is 15 years older and she was all about him when he was a baby. They tend to be little mothers.
There is 9 .5 years apart from my oldest to youngest I have four kids
I have siblings 5, 10,15 and 16 years apart. When we were young it was fun because I babied them and now I am 43 and you youngest sibling is 23. We are all close but she tells people I’m her mom sometimes to irritate me 
they will be close if you teach them to be
There is 10 years between my oldest and my youngest. They are not really that close. They love each other but my oldest no longer lives at home and his interest has never really been his little brother. I wouldn’t put too much responsibility on your oldest, and also try to spend one on one time with her. My son and I would do date nights once a month so we could spend time together.
