Hi! New Here! A few questions...

Hi Everyone,

I am new to these boards. Just a little background - I have been married for just about 2 years and I have decided that I want to start TTC in March. In the meantime, I am getting ready. I started working with a nutritionist over the summer to lose some weight. So far, it has been successful. I also am working out to try to get into great shapre before I try to get pregnant. (since I have March in my head, I figured I would use this time to do this!).

Other than just general health, what else should I be doing before I start TTC?

I look forward to any comments and I look forward to getting to know all of you over the upcoming months!

have you seen your dr yet?? Mine gave me a bunch of samples...I liked PrimaCare One the best out of all the samples. See if they can give you samples because each person is different with their reactions....but, I love PrimaCareOne. The drugstores also have generic ones too...I have heard lots of people taking those too.
Good luck to you!!

Thanks - no I haven't talked to my DR yet. I am planning on going for my annual before the end of the year, and I figure that's when I will discuss it, since I would like to start trying in March.

Right now, I am trying to get all my ducks in a row - get in shape, eating healthy, excercising, just trying to get my body ready.

Thanks again!! Chat Icon

Maybe just continue to take your regular vitamins(if you take) if not, maybe just take a multi for the time between now and your annual. Welcome aboard!

I actually take a multi vitimin twice a day that my nutritionist gave me and it has iron in it. He made sure of that. The folic acid is the only thing I would be missing. I think I will hold off and wait until I go to the DR.

Welcome!! GNC makes a prenatal vitamin. I also started trying to cut the caffeine habit.
