Thank you so much for all of this information and advice. Wow. This forum continues to blow my mind way with all the informative and kind people!
To reply, my employer actually does offer coverage for domestic partners, I read it in my benefits booklet this week. This is actually a new job, I start in September, so benefits won't kick in for 90 days. But once they do, it sounds like I can cover my girlfriend, since we do in fact live together and share a bank account. This is the approach I'm sure we will take.
If this wasn't an option, we would just wait until we were settled in New Jersey to start trying. We both just rather not, since my girlfriend is older we don't really want to wait anymore than we need to. And getting pregnant for us is a little bit more time consuming and hectic than a heterosexual couple
Who knows, we may not have a successful pregnancy until after April anyway. Here's hoping to earlier, if not, it is what is is.
Thanks again NJGOAT for all of your help!
