Pregnant after 35

Hello!! I recently found out I'm pregnant with baby #3. I'm due Aug. 1 and I will be 38 when I deliver. It took 2 1/2 years to conceive DC#1 on fertility treatments. DC#2 (who will be 1 this month) took about 9 months with fertility medicines. Thinking the same would occur this time, we were shocked when it took only 2 months. We are beyond thrilled (I'm a bit nervos). DH wants twins so we can be "done." Ultimately, we would love 4 kids by 40. Crazy, I know.
I'm not witty enough to respond with a sarcastic comeback when people start asking us if this was "on purpose." Of course it is/was.
The only thing, is this baby is due during the busiest part of our year. We own and operate a vacation cleaning abd concierge service in the Panhandle of FL. We have a lot of seasonal contractors, but, with 3 kids, DH is going to have to hire FT employees to take over my responsibilities.
Hoping to see a strong healthy HB on Weds! Looking forward to hanging out on the 35 and over board
