I've namechanged by the way.
My sister has been unemployed for two years after relocating to the UK from an international company where she had a team leader position.
She's unsure what to do next. Stay in the UK, try for a baby or move abroad for another job possibly but realistically give up the chance of a baby.
What do you think, what would you do at 39?

Does she have a job offer? Does she have someone to make her pregnant?
39 isn't old for having a baby it will probably be more difficult to conceive though.
What does she want to do?

If she wants a child, now would seem like a natural point to try. Not sure it would be a good thing to do just to fill the time though.

is she in a committed relatinship?

she has been out of work for 2 years?

she's 39 so if she wants a baby then she needs to start trying IMO - she may already have left it too late, but hopefully not

she sounds rather like a ditherer to be honest - 2 years unemployed with too many options

If she wants a baby, she needs to start trying ASAP.

activate you are right, she is a ditherer but I feel she hasn't got time to dither and needs to start making decisions.

Time is running out for her to have a baby. Career can always wait and be picked up later.
