Any problems having kids so late, I mean with regards to the pregnancies?

Not for us. We do know mid-30s couples who have had to try for a while, but it worked out. One couple had to pay for fertility drugs, but the mother had non-age-related fertility problems.
Apparently the risks of complications and birth defects do go up with age, but I think that is largely going into the later 30s and the 40s.
So, I think the OP will do fine to wait!
