We did both! Was saving for our first house and TTC at the same time. We already had our block of land so we did have a little head start and when we signed the contract to start building when I was 8 weeks PG.

Just thought I'd say too that even though sometimes it seems like everyone else has it better than you, imagine them with a humungus mortgage and maxed out credit cards. Always makes me feel better Especially when my neighbours have just got a boat, car, pool and had a 2 week holiday to Qld. Though I feel a little green in the gills I knew they refinanced and extended their mortgage to have them!
