I don't want to go all Dr. Phil on you, but you have to sort a couple of things out with each other. Your wife isn't going to have kids, you both are. Before anything, make sure you get on the same page about having children. The responsibility is bigger than anything entrepeneurial you'll ever do, but so are the rewards. I'm like you, mid-30's, no succesful startup just yet, but I have two children. They're my no. 1 priority and inspiration. They don't stand in the way of working on my startup, although they delay the work somewhat, but I don't mind that. Having kids is awesome if you're (plural!) ready for it. It also doesn't mean giving up on your dream. I work 4 days a week, I take care of the kids 1 day a week and the weekends, and work on my startup while commuting and on some evenings. It's perfect like this. Whatever you decide, good luck. Shoot me an email if you ever want to chat about parenthood and startups!
