i applaud you for focusing on your marriage and taking a break for yourselves. I say wait as loing as YOU need, even if your DH is not ready, when you are then you must make a decision. Taking time together will help to give both of you prespective. DH and I took 7 months off from everything related to TTC and decided together to try one more IVF cycle. SO far it worked. DH was also much more involved in my cycle and giving me my meds and coming to appointments. To him raising children is not the same as having a biological child. For me, biological child is very important but we have always know that we would adopt regardless if we had IF issues or not.
The break definitely helps and in the end if you decided that focusing on your marriage is the most importnant thing then you can adopt or use donor eggs in the future. Either way that child will always be yours.
Best of luck.
