I'm coming out of the closet!

Hi girls, I've been lurking for months so I'm coming out to say HI!

DH and I decided that my last month on the patch will be July and then it's time to get down to business. I went to my gyn yesterday for my annual PAP and told him what we decided. I thought he would have prescribed pre-natals because I thought you're supped to take them while TTC. Is that true/not true??

And from lurking around here for so long, I'm going to buy the TCOYF book soon. Glad to be joining you all.

Best Wishes to all of you!! Chat Icon

Good Luck when you start. You can start to take them if you want, It wont hurt. I didn't get a perscription, I bought the over the counter ones. He just told me to take Folic Acid. I decided to take Pre-Natals.

Welcome Chat Icon and Good Luck TTC!!!

You can start taking over the counter pre-natals to get yourself ready. I take the GNC brand and they are working out well for me. ANything with 800mcg folic acid is good for now

Sending you lots and lots of BD in the coming months!! Chat Icon ~Chat Icon ~Chat Icon ~Chat Icon

Yea!! Welcome, my almost date-twin!!

I would definitely start some kind of multi-vitamin with folic acid. And that book will help you more than anything. I'm re-reading it now and DH started to read it too!!

Lots of luck to you when you start your journey!!

Re: I'm coming out of the closet!

Congratulations and lots of Baby Dust to you. My doc advised me to take two multivitamins or an OTC prenatal vitamin. Like everyone else said...it's the folic acid that you need.

Thanks for the BD ladies and for the advice about the vitamins. I suddenly feel so much responsibility and want to make sure that I can do whatever I can to have a healthy pregnancy and baby.

DH and I are really excited about TTC! Looking forward to more posts here.

Thanks again!! Chat Icon
