At a bare minimum, I would aim for a full year at AWS since you are already 3/4 of a year currently. You can start tentatively interviewing; it could take a few months depending on where you want to go.

It depends. If you want to leave, is it because you're unhappy or feel like you're missing out on a better opportunity? If so, then leave as soon as you reasonably can.

How are you making these plans? Do you have a current offer from Google or are you expecting you'll get an offer in 6-8 months? How can you possibly know you'll have a kid in 12-16 months?

I have an offer with Google. Just need to team match, at any point in the next 11 months. IVF means we have a decent amount of control over when we will get pregnant -> have a baby

Oh hmm, well will you make more than 10k if you move to Google in the next 4 months? If so, then you can just invest the difference in Amazon. Ah okay, I didn't think IVF had a high success rate, I could be wrong. I think that's a pretty difficult thing to plan for. I'd base my decision on whether or not I like my current team, if the money is important and all that Congrats on the offer!
