TTC WWYD?

So, our baby is one and our life made a 180 degree turn in the last weeks. My husband lost his job, but he was going to quit anyway end of May. We are moving to Israel and I can take my job with me. I got my period back 2 weeks ago for the first time and was excited to start trying again.

I am almost 31 and misscarried several times before. We want to have many kids, but now we are not sure about timing TTC right now with everything being upside down. ARGH.

    Sounds like the last few weeks have been a rush!

    If I were you, I'd probably go ahead with TTC - maybe I'm just impatient but you don't know how long it will take (I'm 31 too so I know the feeling of wanting to move on with #2) - if you get lucky and get pregnant right away, you still have 9 months to sort things out.

    When are you moving?  I probably wouldn't want to be in the second half of pregnancy making an international move, so if you aren't moving soon, maybe wait a few months in case you get pregnant as soon as you start trying.

    Good luck with whatever you decide!

    I don't think there is any perfect time or situation to have a baby or a family.  Things happen for a reason at certain times - we often can't figure out why we are being tried or tested, or why a miracle happens when it does... but there is usually a reason.

    We weren't in a place financially or life-wise to usually be ready to have a baby - DH didn't have a job, our house was too small, DH's dad just died and he was going through some MAJOR estate drama with his sister, we didn't know if DH could impregnate me conventionally since he had major chemo and a testicle removed due to cancer, etc. etc. but things ended up working out better than I could have ever imagined.

    Oh BTW while I was on bedrest during my pregnancy, my house was under major renovation.  No electricity and it was December, I was cooped up in one room, no kitchen, drywall dust and snow in my bathroom, if I had the baby early we would have had to rent a hotel for a safe place for her to be and it was fine.  Sucked, but DD ended up being overdue, she was so cozy inside me and knew it would be best to wait it out.
