Wanting baby no 4

I'm 33, almost 34, I am married and my hubby is almost 48 and I have a 12 year old, 10 year old and an 8 year old. I have never been one to get broody around other peoples babies. For the last few months I have had a deep desire to have another baby? I am putting it down to my age but I just don't know if that is what it really is.

Surely you've done your bit towards ensuring that the population will survive? Can you afford another baby? Why not foster instead? It might be your age, but on the other hand you could have another 10 fertile years ahead of you. What then?

Have any of your friends or family recently had babies, and you cuddle them and think "What if"?

Agewise, I was your age when I had DC1 so I was knackered for a few years ( had DC2 at 36)

Do you not look at your DC and think now they're older you can do more with them. Not think about sleepless nights and taking a baby then toddler round with you all.
Will you need more space? Extension? Bigger car?
What's your DH view and your DC?

Broodiness is hormonally charged I reckon.
