Thinking about growing your family? From understanding your fertility window to optimizing your health and lifestyle, preconception prep is all about making informed choices to give your future baby the best start. Here’s a few questions to get you started on your pregnancy journey.
1. Are you consuming enough nutrients?
Taking the right vitamins during the preconception phase is crucial for both your health and future development of your baby. Here are some suggestions:
It is also important to maintain a healthy and balanced diet to help optimize your fertility and prepare your body for pregnancy. Overweight mothers face increased health risks such as diabetes during pregnancy, high blood pressure and oversized babies that require a Caesarean section. On the other hand, underweight women are at a higher risk for fertility problems, premature labour or having a baby with low birth weight.
2. Harmful habits still part of your routine? Time for a change!
3. Have you been tracking your period?
Understanding your menstrual cycle can help greatly enhance your chances of conception. This involves monitoring your menstrual cycle and identifying ovulation patterns, which is key to knowing when you are most fertile.
4. Feeling overwhelmed by stress? Take a moment to slow down and breathe.
Stress can get in the way of fertility, so it’s crucial to unwind yourself. Try deep breathing, regular exercise, or a nature walk to clear your mind and reset. Make time for what you love—whether it’s reading, hobbies, or spending time with loved ones. If stress feels overwhelming, don’t hesitate to reach out to a therapist. A little stress relief now can go a long way for your health and your future baby!
5. Have you scheduled your preconception check-up?
