I am always surprised at how insensitive some people can be. Especially if they have had no fertility issues. They find it quite hard to understand how the desire to have a baby can take over someone's life. Having said that though, I think sometimes we need to be aware of how we are coping realistically and not be blinded by that desire.

Having a break could be a good thing but should be because you have decided that it's what you need, not because someone else has convinced you.
Don't think I've helped much, just a long way of saying "do what you feel is right" he he
