74 | Making Plans While TTC: How to Live Beyond the Due Date Calculator ‘What Ifs'

Do you ever feel like your whole life is on pause while you’re trying to conceive? Maybe you find yourself asking, “Should I plan that trip?” or “What if I’m pregnant by then?” Living in limbo can leave you exhausted, anxious, and unsure of how to move forward.

In today’s episode, we’re talking about how to make plans while you’re waiting—without fear, guilt, or the constant “what if” game. You’ll hear both biblical wisdom and practical tools to help you enjoy your life, hold your plans with open hands, and trust God’s timing for your family.

✨ What You’ll Learn in This Episode:

• Why Scripture encourages us to plan with humility and trust (James 4:13–15; Proverbs 16:9)

• How to live fully and joyfully in the waiting, instead of putting life on pause

• Practical strategies for planning trips, events, and commitments while TTC

• Encouragement to delight in the present season, knowing God’s timing is always perfect

Whether you’re in month 3 or year 6 of waiting, this episode will help you release the fear of “messing up the timing” and step into abundant life—even before the pregnancy test turns positive.
