Let me begin by saying how sorry I am for your losses. It must have been terrible to deal with.
Now, also let me say that a baby will not necessarily fill the void of these losses. It will just take up your time so that you don't think about it so much.
Now, you may be physically ready to have children, but we never really know if we are emotionally ready until they get here. Believe me, I had 4 kiddos, the first at age 22. Also, are you financially ready? That is probably the biggest question. Do you have any idea how much they cost? With formula, diapers, baby food, new clothes every 6 weeks or so, doctor's visits for well-baby check ups as well as when the get sick, vaccinations, day care, I could go on and on.
This is really something to think about since you are not yet married. Babies and finances that come along with them can cause some tremendous pressure in relationships. Once a couple is not married it is easier (and cheaper) to walk away from the situation leaving one person, usually the woman but not always, a single parent.
With all that said you have to have sex when you are ovulating which is approximately 11 - 16 days after the first day of your last period. This is for the average 28 day cycle. Once you start your period, the egg is no longer viable for conception.
Just some food for thought.
