So I just graduated from Nursing school. Me and husband have been married a year now and were thinking about having kids. The issue is fitting it in with the whole trying to get/keep a job/worrying about relapses/financial issues.
Since I'm on Tysabri, I believe it's six months that I would have to be off meds before we could even try. Being a nurse, I don't know that I could trust myself working and not being on meds. So I figure it would either be we try now and I don't apply for jobs for a year which a) I don't know if we could afford especially being as I have to start paying back student loans on top of everything else, b) i don't want to forget half of what I learned in college and c) it looks bad on a resume. Or I could get a job and work for a few years then quit, which also looks bad on a resume, plus I'm impatient.
I guess I'm looking for opinions and also just venting. Just another thing that MS has to complicate.
