She's sub-specializing in intensive care, unfortunately. We've discussed having children toward the end of fellowship for the reasons you state. It's a tough decision for us because I'll likely carry the brunt of the parental workload, but we also depend on my income for living expenses and loan repayment.

We waited until my wife was done with residency and fellowship, and it has worked out well for us. We have our second child on the way shortly, feel free to message me if I can help in any way.
Of course, it's a different story if she will be in a more sane line of work, such as hospitalist, ER doc, etc.
