Can't make my mind up about having a 6th

Dh wants to have one last baby before I get my tubes tied.
We currently have 3 teenagers (mine from first marriage) then a 4 and 2 year old together. I've always wanted to have six children for as long as I can remember, but now the youngest is 2 and getting a little bit more easier I'm starting to think do I want to start all over again 🤦🏻‍♀️

I'm 35 this year so need to make the decision fairly quickly because I said I wouldn't have anymore babies past 35. Don't want another baby born in winter as we have 4 winter babies already,birthdays around Xmas are not as good as summer ones. Ideally I'd like to fall pregnant June/July time.

I said I was done after baby number 5 and planned on having my tubes tied but wanted to give it a bit of time to make sure I was 100% sure it was the right decision 🙈

Should I just go for it? What's one more 🤭 anyone been in a similar situation?

Go for it. If you always wanted 6 then why not. Could you financially afford it?

We can yes but winter months are always a bit of a struggle (dh is self employed.work slows down a bit in the winter months) two oldest dc both work so earn their own money.
