I just wondered if anyone here is still WTT rather than actually TCC?
It's very frustrating because I am 40 now but we can't TCC for a few months. I got pregnant at 37 and had Matilda at 38 but I was made redundant when I was in the early stages of pregnancy. I freelanced for a few months, took 18 months off with her and expected to start a new perm role last September. But I work in advertising and the market is a bit crap so I had to freelance before starting this job two months ago. Morally I feel I have to be here a few months before we try so in my head I have December/January
I am really conscious of my age now - I know lots of people who had their first baby with no problems and then struggled to have a second. If we have problems we don't have any time to sort it out....
Technically we could start now as I am eligible for SMP but I don't want to piss work off - I really like this job and can see myself being here for a few years which is unusual for my age in advertising where the average age is about 25!
I just feel like I am wasting opportunities as each month goes by.....
