TTC Decision

Hi all,

DH and I have been married for almost a year (6/11) and I'm starting to think about ttc. I'm 26 and DH is 29.

I am currently a teacher at a catholic school in Queens but will not be returning to the school in September. I also applied to grad school to get my master's degree in Education starting in Sept. but haven't heard yet.

My dilemma is this. Should I ttc while I'm in grad school or wait until after I get my degree in 3-3.5 years??? If I get pregnant while I'm in school then the little one will almost be ready for nursery school/PreK by the time I get my degree. If I wait to get pregnant until after I get my degree then the little one will need to be in daycare and I will need to miss work for a little when he/she is first born.

What do you all think????

Thanks!!

Re: TTC Decision

Obviously it is a personal decision. But I would go with TTC now for the reason you said.

Re: TTC Decision

I wouldn't postpone TTC. It may take you longer than you think to get pg. Or you might get pg right away. Either way, I think I would start sooner rather than later (JMO).
