I was 20 (young!) with my 1st, going to college, running my business all as a single dad. Don't know how I did it, actually I do, I had fantastic parents who helped me immensely..
Don't know if I would survive that routine now at 39.
But I got married in 09 and we just had our son Harrison mid-March. Did I want more kids? I could have lived without another.... until I held my boy for the 1st time. Now the late nights are tough, on both of us. The wifey is 41 and had an uneventful pregnancy until the end when pre-eclampsia nearly killed her.
We did discuss our age factor and felt our lives would be enriched with a child, we are financially stable enough and share the same out look on life: Life is short, live it to the fullest (as mentioned above)
I now get to go to more races, indulge my adolescent hobbies and passions all over again with my new buddy! (see the thread in the tech forum where dads posted pix with their sons working together on their P-car for inspiration if needed)
Win-win!
For our relationship and marriage it was the right path
YMMV
