How to move on when we’re stopping TTC

We’ve only been trying 3 months. Now my husband says he doesn’t think he’s ready. He wants a baby, really badly, but he doesn’t think he’s fully mature enough or ready for it.

I don’t want to have a baby with him when he’s not ready, of course. But as if I didn’t want to get pregnant badly enough to begin with, now after 3 months of OPKs, pregnancy research, getting excited about being a mom... I don’t know how to move on knowing we aren’t even trying anymore.

Have any of you taken an indefinite break from TTC? How did you deal? I feel so depressed and like I have no purpose.
