Tell me your pro's! (And cons!)

We are undecided when to start trying, I am 35 and have 4 x DS (15,12,6,3). Youngest starting school in sept!

I'm scared!!!

I just have 4 but with a 19 year age gap between oldest and youngest.
The pros- you know your stuff, baby stage is automatic mode after the others. You have helpers on hand.
The cons- sleepless nights are harder as you get older, spreading your time about becomes difficult.
Good luck 😁
