To suddenly want another child after saying I didn't

I am 41 yo and a mother of one dd and one ds. Ds is starting school in September and the plan was to go back to college to do an Access to HE and thn do a degree. I work p/time with pre-schoolers and have considered doing a PGCE eventually. On and off over the past 2 yrs I have thought about another child but all things considered my head said no. I am now once again being bugged by these thoughts. I really feel broody and think to myself if I don't try now it will be too late though it may never happen iyswim. If I have another baby I am unlikely to do the degree either. I don't know whether to talk to dh as he'll think I'm a crazy woman as all I've talked about for the past 2 months is which degree I'll do. What is happening to my head??
