Planning to start trying in a couple of months and want to give my body the best chance. Already started folic acid. What else did u all do to get ready, any lifestyle changes that helped?
Eat well, sleep enough and relax your mind na, stress is the biggest hurdle. Start folic acid after asking the doctor. Take it gently, your body knows what to do.
Start folic acid before conceiving, eat well, stay active and cut alcohol and smoking. A preconception checkup with your gynac is really worth it. They can check thyroid, sugar and other basics first.
We are just starting to plan and felt unsure where to begin. So a preconception visit is a good first step then. This is really reassuring to read, thank you.
Before conceiving I focused on walking, light yoga and a healthy weight, with my doctor's okay. Good fitness helped my body feel ready. Just dont overdo intense workouts, keep it balanced.
