Difficult to answer: This is such a personal decision, and no one can answer it for you. Preliminary data shows zero effect of Covid-19 on a fetus. However, pregnancy is by definition an immunocompromised state, and some women will certainly be affected and at risk of severe illness during pregnancy, prenatal care may be limited, and the hospital is a scary place to be. But your fertility may not improve without help.
