One of the best things you can do to prepare for pregnancy is to exercise regularly. You do not have the Boston Marathon, but even walking around the block a few times per week will help tone and condition your body and help you prepare for the journey ahead.
Women who regularly participate in some form of exercise before and during pregnancy are more likely to experience quicker and less problematic labors. It is a sufficient reason in itself to start exercising as soon as possible.
The other important thing you need to do during pregnancy is make an appointment with your doctor. Good prenatal care during pregnancy is essential to maintain a happy and healthy pregnancy. If you are not pregnant but thinking about becoming pregnant, many doctors recommend you schedule a visit may review your health history and help overcome potential barriers to your fertility.
Your doctor can establish a system of prenatal vitamins and help you better understand your cycle so you know the times of the month you are most likely to get pregnant.
Most practitioners will schedule your first visit between 8-11 weeks if you are having a normal, low risk pregnancy. If you are not sure when she became pregnant, consider scheduling an appointment with your provider immediately to ensure that everything goes as it should and that you have no risk factors for possible complications.
