Why wouldn’t the older two be considered full sibling? If they grow up in the same home they are real siblings!
My siblings and I are real siblings we grew up together we bonded! I am 18 years older than my sister and we never say half or not full we say we are sisters!
Have another baby if you want but don’t make it about being a real siblings that’s absurd
I didn’t have my first child till I was 31 because I wasn’t going to be a teen mom like mine was.

Had my first at 35 and my second at 37. It’s not easy having 2 so close in age but go for it. You definitely aren’t too old to have another one
My mom was 39 when she had my younger sister. Just have the baby
Not selfish for wanting another baby at an older age. But pretty shitty for not considering her other siblings as “full” siblings. They are siblings no matter full, step, adopted whatever 
Women are having kids at all aves anymore.
Do you, if you want one- go for it.
No if you had one healthy baby ,why wouldn’t you have another healthy child , some people have healthy baby’s in their 40th ,so go for it
I got blessed with my ONLY at the age of 37. He is 11 now. It wasn’t easy, but I did it alone. My hero (that’s what I call him) is my whole world. If you want another child, go for it.

37/38 is old? I had my kids at 36 and 38 and had no issues. As for difficultly, I guess it was as difficult as it would have been at any age.

Yes have another baby,
I had boy/girl twins at 39. They are my first kids and only kids. I only wanted one child but I couldn’t imagine them not having each other. Do what makes you happy.

My mom was 40 and my dad was 43 when I was born…the only drawback is losing them at an early age.
My mother in law had her kids at 37 and 42! Do what makes you happy
Just my perspective:
Don’t have another baby just so your youngest can have a “full” sibling or so your youngest can have a sibling “close in age”
Your youngest has siblings, not being “full” siblings doesn’t take away from their relationship.
And not having a younger sibling won’t damage your youngest.
If you want to have a baby…then have one.
But make sure it’s something you and your husband want for yourselves first.

My mom was 39 and had my twin and I. She said she had more patience with us than her other kids she had in her 20’s. I’d say if healthy go for it!
Its perfectly normal to try for kids at our age i have a 16 yo and a 2 yo and were going to try for 1 more im 36
All the best to you, if thats what you n your hunny want giver! Honestly I wish I had waited to have children. I was young, wish I had waited, because I realize now whats truly important in life…so you giver n dont let no ones opinions stop ya…
A coworker of mine got pregnant when she was 39 and had her little girl at 40. That little girl is now seven and she also has a stepson who just turned 18 and a son that is 17.
If the doctors see no issue do whatever makes you and your husband happy. 
I just had a surprise baby in July 2021 in Sept I turned 38. My other two kids I had at 24 and 27.
My mom was 44 and 46 when she had my brother and sister! was wonderful for our family.

find a Dr who supports pregnancy in older women as it sounds like your doctor doesn’t support older women having kids. I know plenty of women who have had kids in their later 30s and honestly it’s something that is happening more and more.

If both you and your husband are good with it, go for it! I was a second marriage child and Mom and Dad stopped with me. As a kid it was frequently lonely because I had no siblings near my age. I had a 1/2 brother, but he was 10 years older and we were never close.
Since when 37 is old…wow.

You’re smart to have another! My boys are 7 & 8 years older than my daughter (they are only 14 months apart) and now my daughter is 5 and has no one to play with as they are 12&13 now. Wish I would have had another one right after her so she could have a built in playmate

I was 23 with my first, 32 with my second and 38 with my last… the last was my easiest pregnancy and delivery… No problems first two I was high risk and delivery’s sucked… lol but I had more energy with the first two lol. I notice as I got older it was harder to raise kids. I was more tired and worn out as I got older with them.
Anyone who says having a baby at a later age is selfish is weird to me. Yeah you COULD have less time with your kid, but, my parents had me in their 20s and I STILL lost a parent 
you could die tomorrow honestly or live for 100 years. life is unpredictable. You could be healthy today and be incapacitated tomorrow, life happens. I say if you’re healthy enough to carry and you want another then do it! 
worry about tomorrow- tomorrow!!

My mom was 37 when she had me & 36 when she had my sister. She said it wasn’t hard at all having kids at an older age aside from her having cancer which took a lot of her energy away - she was a single mom but our family helped and our oldest sister (19 years older than me) helped out a lot too
I say go for it, but wait for the 3 month old to be about 1 1/2. It will be much easier on all of you to have a bit of breathing room between babies, not to mention your body needs to heal a bit more.
If you want another little one, and a sibling closer in age to her then go for it. But please don’t use terms like “full and half” sibling with your kids. They are siblings, and the older ones don’t love her any less than another child from the same father. Just because they don’t share the same father doesn’t mean their relationship is any less special.

It’ my sound strange but w/my siblings they are 5, 10, and 12 years older than me. The one that is 5 years older…we don’t speak at all and never got along, but I do with the other two! If it’s safe and you’ve weighed all the risks and you still believe you want to…go for it!
I had my first at 39. It’s hard on me. As multiple autoimmune chronic pain issues. I struggle daily. She’s about to turn 6. She’s perfect beyond measure. I wouldn’t have it any other way
What do you mean a “full sibling” you already have 2 kids those are her siblings

that is your choice, But I did NOT like your wording of that you are a Stay At Home Mom so she gets plenty of love & attention, I was not because instead of staying with a POS husband I left & had to work, My kids were very much loved & we talk about everything, So that comment of yours was very offending to all the moms out there who rather do it alone instead of staying in horrible marriage/relationships or just finding an guy so there is a man in the house!!!

I just had #3 In November and I’m 37. If it’s what you both want go for it xx
I was 28, 36 and 39 when I had my children. My children are 11, 3 and 7 months. I was considered high risk with my last baby because of my age. They monitor you closer and every two weeks they do an ultrasound. If you all want to try for another one I see no harm. Good luck
If that’s what you want to do then do it.
Know this. Kids are a gamble. You never know what kind of personality you’ll get. Your littles may not mesh well. The personalities may clash.
You might give birth to dennis the menace or the next great dare devil that breaks everything in its path…. Lol
Or it could be that fantastic fantasy family you dream it will be and all work out swell.
You’re the mom so unconditional and equal love for all of the children you have will ensure that their home life is balanced and healthy for all. If they fight or friends is luck of the draw.
Unless there’s a medical reason why shouldn’t then I would not have a baby because a dr told me not to.
That’s you and you’re husband business
My friend had her first at 40 years old, a month later after she was born she got pregnant with her second they are Irish twins. by 42 she had two kids they are both healthy great kids

I’m an older mum also. 38 and 40 when my kids were born. It’s amazing and I’m sooo glad I have them. Age did stop me from a third however, I was 42 when we were ready again, and it just seemed daunting at that point for whatever reason

Do what you think is right for your family! I’ve had trouble conceiving and we’ve had one loss, but we also had a healthy baby boy who is now 2. I was 30 when he was born. We haven’t had any luck getting pregnant again yet, but we aren’t done having babies and growing our family yet either. I’ve accepted that I’ve gotten a ‘late start’ (lol had to choose the right man to reproduce with) on motherhood and that my 30s are going to be for my babies. I may not get pregnant again for years, but we will take that risk.
You aren’t old, and you aren’t selfish. If your family doesn’t feel complete yet, by all means try to have another child while your fertility is allowing it!

My friend had her youngest at 42!
My ex mother and father in law had my ex husband at 50 & 55.
My situation was so much like yours…I remarried after being a single mom for 10 years, and we decided to have a child together! ( he also had a precious daughter from his previous marriage!!) I turned 43 two weeks after our Asher was born (it took us 5 years to conceive) my plan was to have another for Asher to grow up with because I did so well with my pregnancy, and delivery!! My husband wasn’t as attentive, and helpful with the baby as I thought he would be, so I decided to stop there! (and he was fine with it as well) it worked out fine with us because now my older kids have kids that Asher can grow up with! If you have a good hubby that helps… I say go for it!!!

Well done go for it I love people who love kids,to many kids unwanted.I have 2 plus twin grand daughters 5yrs old.For medical reason I could only have 2 .I adore kids so my advice is go a head enjoy them.
I am the youngest of six kids. My mom had me when she was 42. If you want another, have another.
I had my first baby at 38 and and my second 2 week shy of my 40th birthday. Today they are 18 and 17.
My mom had me when she was 43 and my 2 full blooded siblings around 33 and around 38 aside from having hereditary conditions we came out pretty good… I also have 2 other brothers who have different dads growing up I knew they had different dads but all of us never considered any of us as half blooded so my half brothers are still big bros so from the child point of view I’m sure your little won’t be so alone 
hope this helps
I say go for it if everything looks good.
I had a baby 10 months ago and can have another within the next couple weeks. I have 2 older 9 and 6 so they help out alot. SAHM
My mother was 40 when I was born. I have a older brother. My mother was more like a Grandmother in a lot of ways, but she was the most kind and loving person ever. I wouldn’t trade my childhood for anyone else’s…go for it!
Best decision of my life. Two babies. 18 months apart at 40 years of age. 
Go for it, I was 32 with my first, 38 with my second and my husband was 39. We are now 40 and 41. I just recently had a miscarriage but we will be trying again since we wrapped our minds around having another.
If you want another have one! Don’t count on answers on a fb question. Your choice
My sister in law is pregnant now and she’s 39. She just makes sure she follows Dr’s orders bc shes high risk. If it’s something you want, who cares what others think. Good luck with everything
I had my youngest at 38 and I had five babies all in my 30 3 of them I was over 35, I had one at 31 one at 33, one at 35 one at 36 and one at 38

Have you asked your older kiddos how they feel? bc i know when I went from just me, too multiple young siblings at 14 I was really sour with my dad and it hurt my feelings. idk why but it did. I understand they were the adults and all that but I became the built in babysitter and nanny and it sucked. I resent my dad and ex step mom for it. I understood it wasn’t my choice, but I feel like I would have appreciated a heads up lol. ALSO I have unconditional love for my siblings and don’t have any “full” siblings, it never changed how i feel about them, if that’s something you are worried about.
also please don’t think I’m saying not too do it. I’m just 
giving some feed back from someone who was in your kiddos shoes in a way. but I bet you guys are 1000% better of people than my ex step mom lol.
I had my youngest at 40 (he was a surprise) lol but I had no issues and he was perfectly healthy. So now I have a 5 year old, 13, 19 and 24 and they’re all close… Older two same father… Then younger two same father 
Young one - we had a large family - 10 of us (4 left here - 6- in heaven) I am the oldest , 8 more and my baby brother was born 20 years later - I love all my Brothers and sisters. I’m like a second mom . Mom was 21 and Pops was 23 when I was born and 41&43 when they were done having babies. It’ll be fine- if the Mighty Creator decides to bless you again - there’s your answer.
