While many people congratulated me with the pregnancy news, I did get several "it's about time" comments. And believe me, I got those from my parents and in-laws too. But, Mike and I intentionally wanted 3 years between children, and in this video I'll tell you why.

My 2nd kid will be here by the time my first child turns 3.5 years old. If anyone asked me, "what took you so long?" I'm shutting that down quick. I don't think they ever had 2 kids under 2. No thank you!
We went through four years of infertility so I definitely felt the pressure in early 2018 to get pregnant a second time in case I couldnât (and I wasnât getting any younger). I felt less pressure after weâd had our second because Iâd seen Godâs miraculous hand at work twice (no fertility treatments, just miracles).
So our kids are 27, 26 and then 24 months apart. We now have kids aged 7, 5, almost 3 and almost 1 now. Itâs intense and crazy but weâre super intentional about quality one on one time with each child, building bonds between the kids themselves etc. We prayed hard for each of our pregnancies and suffered losses too along the way. But we truly believe God had His hand over our family as it grew and has a plan and purpose for each of these little lives.
And like you said in your video, weâre already in the crazy sleepless nights and diapers and nursing, it made sense for us to just keep ploughing on through.
Is it funny for you now hearing 10 years ago you saying you wanted two kids, now that you have Faith? So glad The Lord had one more little blessing for your family. đ„°
Thank you so much for sharing this with me!
I think 3 yts is a good idea
It's sort of perfect!
Is it at least three years between the birth of the siblings or three years between the pregnancies?
Between pregnancies đ
Just curious why your title says pregnancies 3 years apart but video you keep saying âkids 3 years apartâ. If you wait 3 years to get pregnant your kids will be almost 4 years apart đ
I just saw an ad on TV about this and I just want to see if was true or not, so thanks for the vedio
You're so welcome! Glad you enjoyed it!
@@mamanatural I did, hope you keep making great content like this in the future too
What about 2.5 years
2.5 years is perfect for some families!
