ok well surprisingly i got offered a place on a course yesterday.

we've been ttc for 3 cycles, i have a very high miscarriage rate, 9 pregnancies and 3 full term births.
now ive been offered this opportunity (with no formal education otherwise, i dont know how i swung this) i dont know how i feel about it

dh reckons i should go for it, because even if we do manage to conceive this month, there are no promises, it could take a year to get a sticky one like the last time. worst case scenario dh is going to be a SAHD anyway and fully supports me, so i CAN do both, or repeat units if needed. he feels if i dont do it and this time next year we still havent managed to reach the 12 week stage i will feel like ive wasted the opportunity.

i just feel a bit selfish swanning off to do a course when i could be due a baby in april.

am i being silly??

No you are not being silly. The only thing is if you are getting assisted conception then you may have to make arrangements for appointments. Also be careful of stress levels. Better to try then bail out for safetys sake than to put life on hold. Its really your decision but so long as it doesnt cause any stress then you dont have anything to stop you really.

Just go for it. One does not gave to preclude the other! I'm ttc working in a high profile job and going back to write my dissertation this oct. The uni stuff may well have to go if I am lucky enough to get pregnant but that's fine !
