To have another baby???

I am 35 and so is DH. I have one 3 year old from my previous marriage and DH has two ages 6 and 9 from his previous marriage.

We definatley want a baby together but sometimes I feel like I am too old

DH wants to get cooking now, but I love our weekends alone together (when the kids are with the ex's). But if I wait I'll be 36, 37

What do you all think????

I hope you're not too old because if you're too old then I'm too old and I'm not too old so you're not too old.

I say go for it! We are definitely going to try for another.

I'm 32 and don't plan on TTC for another few years because I want to do some things first before we have children, like traveling. Brooke Shields just had her first child at 38 and I know other people (personally and celebrities) who have children after the age of 35. I would talk to your doctor about your concerns so he/she can help you when you decide to TTC, but other than that, I wouldn't worry about it.
