TTC while covering maternity pay (1 year secondment)

Hi all! I’m looking for advice/previous experiences! A job opportunity has come up in work that I have been working towards for the last 2 years. The posts do not come up very often, although a similar job post was out around 6 months ago however I was unsuccessful. The current job post is a 12 month secondment to cover maternity leave. My predicament is that we want to TTC next year, and currently those pregnant are moved to non-patient facing roles from 28weeks of pregnancy within the NHS. Do I still apply for the job or not?! We could take the whole year to fall pregnant so timings would work out ok, but what if I fell pregnant straight away? I’d like to hear people’s thoughts? We did have a MMC this year and TTC for a further 6 months with no luck if that changes anything. Thanks
