How Come Most Siblings Are 2 Years Apart?

Question

That's what I noticed

Answer 1

coz their parents planned it that way so it wont b so difficult 4 them 2b taken cared of @ d same tym

me & my bby sis r 9 yrs apart & then she & my baby bro 2 yrs apart..

my dad was workin abroad that's y there's a huge gap

Answer 2

My sister and I are four years apart.

I really wanted children to be 2.5 to 3 years apart, but I got cancer last year. Now I'll be lucky if they're 4 or 5 years apart assuming I can have another child.

Answer 3

i think cause it's a long enough period of time fo the mum to forget the pain of giving birth and to get over the exhaustion of having to cater for a new born baby, but at the same time it's close enough so that the siblings will grow up more or less as friends (hopefully) and be able to take care and play with each other.

Answer 4

I really have no clue but I think it is because it is more manageable when they are only 2 years apart. It actually now that I think about it they really can't be any closer than almost two years because it takes almost a year to conceive and give birth to the child.

Answer 5

Because pregnancy usually lasts for 9 months and most parents aren't ready to have another one so fast.

Answer 6

Most people are not ready to have another child right after the first one.

Answer 7

Mom needs a rest

Answer 8

There is only 14 months between myself and one of my brothers.

Answer 9

they need to take care of the first child for his/her first year so they have no time for a second child

Answer 10

to give the woman's body time to recover, and also that is still close so they will grow up together and be buddies.
