To try or not to try

I turned 35 last month. I have a 3 yo and a 4.5 yo. I thought I was done but now am not so sure. If I did decide to try I would like to start ASAP and the this would be the last month I would take the pill. One of my concerns is feeling old at 35 although I am perfectly healthy. My DH is 100% sure he wants another and is just waiting for me to decide one way or the other. I feel that if I had a baby now I wouldn't be able to pay attention to either the baby or my older ones and that I would not be a good mom to any of them if I cannot be there. My DDs are pretty close in age so basically their activities don't take time away one from the other. If I had a baby it would be a "carseat" baby always in the car while I took the others to school and their different classes, etc.

Any advice?
