I think your T's answer is one I have given many times in all sorts of situations when people ask if I have kids. I never considered how it could be interpreted. What I mean when I say it is that I would like to have children, but there are a number of reasons I do not have kids yet. Career, hubby not ready (hurry up dude!), and probably fertility problems which ain't getting any better! Okay, I guess I am ranting a bit, sorry.
But I guess it is not a very precise way for me to answer that question. I think I say it like that because it seems to protect me from people asking "why not?" which is painful.
But since you were talking about your own situation and her response did trigger so much in you, I think it's worth sharing with her. It sounds like things are going well enough to take that risk.
But it's up to you, as always. It sounds like you are doing well though, and this just threw you.
Take care,
