 How do I even decide between a 2-3 year MFA programme and having a baby next year (which would mean putting grad school off for about 10 years).

I hate this decision making bull shit.

Pros and cons.

If you decide to have a baby, will you ever go back to school? If so will it be much harder with a baby? If not are you okay with never going back to school?

If you don't ever get your MFA what will that mean; will you lose potential future income you could have had with it? Will it limit job opportunities? Will it make you feel that you did not fulfill your goals for yourself?

I think we've decided I'll just go to school now, since we think it would be more financially possible to do that before having kids. Thanks, Sarah! :)

Sweet, sounds like a good plan! I know how you feel too, I'd love love love to have a baby right now but we really need to wait until Chris starts working otherwise we'll be having kids when we're dirt poor lol. No good.
