honestly i think itll all depend on your children, i know kids who are just a few years apart and get along great and then on the other side same amount of years and kids fight all the time. m and my sister are 6 years apart and we did nothing but fight and argue our entire childhoods then finally became friends when i was about 17-18.
whats probably a better idea is for you to think about how you feel abou when you want another child. you said you're only 17 right? give yourself those years like you said and then think about it then. dont worry so much about how your children will be, no point in worry if you should have another kid sooner than YOU are ready just because you want your kids to get along. and who knows by then you might decide you really dont want another child, or be like me. i was 19 when i have my daughter and didnt plan on having another, ended up gettinga divorce and finding another guy and realizing that i did want another baby.

Yeah, my sister and i are 3 years apart and all we did is fight and argue too. We get along now, but before that it was like fire and gasoline! Yeah, i guess i am a little too worried about it and i dont know what i want. Usually i take things 1 step at a time, but im just getting ahead of myself about this lol I have PLENTY of time to decide lol =)

Exactly! no use worrying about it right now, just worry about you, that sweet baby of yours and your SO. You'll know when the time is right again.

My little step brother and I are three years apart and we get along amazingly. His older brother, who's four months older than me, and him don't get along worth a crap. -
