Wanting TTC DC2 but having doubts

We have a 2 year old who is wonderful.
So relaxed and generally a pleasure.

We have been discussing number 2 on and off for a year now and originally said we would like a 3 year gap and so we would be planning on TTC soon.

I would love DC to have a sibling but I have so many doubts cropping up and I’m not too sure if I have the luxury of time to be postponing it or if we should try in the thoughts we might regret it in future if we don’t at least try

I’m 34, it took over 5 years to become pregnant with DC.

I am now back at work, financially things have only just started feeling more settled and sleep wise we are back to feeling human again.

I’m scared that having another child will put added strain on our finances and relationship.
Is the strain worth the additional benefits of another child?

I’m quite understanding that DC might have just been our one miracle and it might not happen again so would we regret not at least giving it a try?

Putting it off another year to when I’m 35 would still not be too late ?

How much strain did adding dc2 to your families put on finances and relationship?

I’m worried about lack of time for each other and still being able to have quality time with DC and DH
