Some have said to lsoe the weight first - (and no offence to anyone pls) but they are much younger than me and have the time to wait - me - i am 37 so would do it again straight away if we were thinking of another one. I dont know how old you are in your sig - but that is a consideration for me. Also I had 2 easy pregs and then 2 losses which shocked me. So whilst we wanted our third close in age, nature had something else planned for us.
I need to lose about 15kg that have crept on from 3 kids - and having 3 kids is not an excuse for me that I cannot lose weight - it is a fact. I know things will get easier - but being up overnight, not getting good solid sleep, having to get out and do school runs - i often find I am running on a cup of coffee until 10.30 and realise i havent had any breakfast. I know what I need to do, but I am also b/f and have a husband that travels weekly - i am giving myself 6 months grace (5 weeks to go lol) and then I will try and get serious about health and fitness. I also have a baby who dislikes the pram (whats with that???!!!!) so makes it very hard to even walk more than 15 minutes without picking him up.
Anyway, ultimately it is a decision for you and your partner, it won't work any other way.
If you don't TTC - focus on the blessings you already have in your life - 2 healthy children and a partner who loves you. Take care.
