N - I'm a teacher too, so I definately know a/b the planning the baby for the end of the school year. Another good time, IMO, is around Thanksgiving b/c you get the Thanksgiving and Christmas holidays, and miss 3 weeks or so of school in between. I was lucky enough that our baby didn't come when we "planned" it - she came at the end of the school year and I had 3 months with her. Right now we are sort of ttc#2, but b/c of me worrying a/b $ and projects I would like to do around the house and projects DH wants to do that all take $, I'm in a mind set where if it happens now, that's great - if not, we can work on some of these other things and try harder in the future (not sure if that will be in a couple of months or in a year)
