Five's a crowd?

Seeking feedback:

Family of four. 
Father in good reliable job. 
Mother in full time work for 1 year, maybe longer, not permanent.
Parents aged 34 and 36 (Mother older).
Parents 'comfortable' enough financially....

Children seeking younger sibling.... 
Mother 'sterilised' after 'repairs' from previous births.
Parents both with STRONG nesting urge.... 
Mother worried about regrets....
Life/love/another child versus money?

Has anyone been in this situation?

Thoughts?

You want another child? If so, go for it! :o)

Never been in that particular situation.
Always trying NOT to have more children.
But ... if you are wanting another child so badly... it should not come down to financial reasons NOT to!
A child really only needs love... the rest will sort itself out.
If that wasn't the case... we would not be the parents of 8!
Does that make sense?

Thanks Cactus, and it totally makes sense, Chris :)

That's what worries me about that nesting urge... even though it will be heaps of effort to get 'uncut' etc, i've always wanted another child, and hubby is onboard now... without any pressure from me...

There is so much other stuff to consider, but I keep coming back to "i've always wanted another one" and would hate to regret it when it's too late.

Will keep you posted, :)
