I'm 41 and my wife is 36. We have a 7.5-year-old daughter and are now expecting our second child. We're feeling quite stressed — partly because of our age, and partly due to financial concerns. Another factor we're thinking about is the 8-year age gap between our children. We're wondering whether we should move forward or take more time to reconsider our decision.

Accepted Answer

So how much term your wife is pregnant that you have not stated see you have to be very practical in deciding whatever you want to do because because financial concern is a very big issue to be seen so if you can manage then you should have a second child and age is not a problem in fact if you look at it the older one would be such a big support to you because they can actually help and handle the child well with the mother if it’s a girl specially so if you are otherwise okay to have a child then you should go for it and it has got no connection with your age or anything Everything is good go for it but yes if you feel of money u  cannot afford then this is a question that you have to think logically
