Husbands deploying, still TTC?

Kyrstin

Hello ladies,

Earlier this week my husband gave me the news that he will be deploying later this year. This comes just days before my appointment with a fertility specialist, which we were hoping to result in me being put on clomid, since I have PCOS and we've been TTC for two years with no luck.

But now I'm scared and I don't know what the right choice is, if I should continue to TTC and possibly get pregnant before he leaves? Or cancel the appointment and get another referral to a specialist when he gets back? The hardest part of that choice is in a year and couple months, we are PCSing over seas. While he's gone on deployment, I'll be moving closer to family so at least I won't be alone.

There's so much to think about and so little time, at least that's how it feels. This will be our first deployment.

Sorry for the long post, ladies/spouses. But I was just wondering if anyone else here has went through/is going through similar, and could offer advice?
