So.. Sam, Shannon, and Morgan are newly ttc or not avoiding, right? Who else is ttc or has plans to try before the end of the year?
What is the ideal spacing to you?

Before I had kids I thought I would space them five years apart because that's how my sisters and I are spaced. Now that I have kids, I like the two year spacing because of how emotionally close Lily and Violet are. They play together so well and are each others' best friend, I think it's adorable.

I know we wont be TTC before the end of the year, possibly never again. But I like the age gap between my kids, Seamus was 2yrs 9mo old when Kieran was born. I got a good amount of 1:1 time with Seamus and he was older so he could help more and understands more when I tell him to be careful and such. And they still play together just as well as kids that are only 1-2yrs apart.

I wanna space J.J and the next one about 18-24 months apart. Then we are gonna wait a good 3-4 years for the 3rd and 4th (gonna aim for twins then!)

^ will you do the 3 and 4th the same 18 - 24 months apart? That sounds like good spacing!
I'm freaking over having 3 so young haha.

I'm back and forth between a spring or fall baby. I want a spring baby because it would make them about 2.5 years apart. But a fall baby would be ideal because we could use the same clothes if it was another boy. Plus maternity clothes would be for the same season. If we went for a fall baby there would be a 3 year age gap. I'm thinking it might be a bit better to have them a tiny bit closer but maybe it doesn't really matter. I want them to be able to play together and we could do family activites together with out one being to old or to young.
soo.. if we are going to do it I would like to get pregnant before the end of the year or Jan 2011 for a October baby! We are ntnp at this time.

3 & 4 will HOPEFULLY be twins. If not, we will probably stop at 3.

I was ntnp, but since I have recently applied for a job I have started bcp's and have decided to wait for awhile longer. We will probably go back to ntnp in late summer or autumn for a spring or summer baby..
Our ideal spacing (of course we have no experience, so its just guessing) will be 18-24 months for #2. IF... a big IF, we go for #3 it wouldn't be for several more years until I get a lot of my student loans paid down.

No TTC or even NTNP anytime soon for us! Call me selfish but I want to get back in shape and enjoy wearing normal clothes and looking decent for a while before being pregnant again. Plus we are moving in July, then moving when we buy a house next July...so I don't want to do that pregnant or with a newborn. I'm thinking we'll TTC when she is around 2-2.5yrs so they will be around 3 yrs apart.

Well as you said we are TTC now, we'd like a 2 year spacing.

I haven't started yet!  I was Oing when DH left and we still used a condom. We're going to next cycle if DH is home at that time. Okay, wait, so I guess we are TTC haha. But there will be no super trying like last time. We'll DTD only if we want to and I won't be tracking anything. Though I stopped charting a few months ago (being lazy) and just keeping an eye on CF.

We will not be TTC again for a couple more years, at least that's what i'm thinking at this point.

We're TTC!  There won't be any age gap as we will most likely only have one, if any.
I'm excited you're TTC Resi! You make cute babies!

We are going to start TTC #2 this Fall  That would put the kids nearly 3 years apart which I think is perfect for us (assuming it takes a few months which I expect it will)
