Any ideas?? - Trying to Conceive

SgtLinnell'sGirl · 09-18-2009, 09:33 AM

I'm currently preparing for DB/DF's deployment (my first) and have decided to get "healthy" while he is gone. (One person, just a looong story - lol). Anyhow, I was married before and I tried to get pregnant, we took Clomed for a year and nothing happened - this was back in 07-08. In June (09) I found out I was pregnant by DB, only to miscarry a week later (twins). SO I know I need to lose some weight, quit smoking (I smoke 2 a day), and start getting my body ready. Anything else I should be doing? Any vitamins I should be taking to get ready? I am taking prenatal vitamins (my ob/gyn recommended I take those). But I was wondering if maybe there was something I should be doing? I have a mild case of Lups so I'm already having to make changes in my life for this. I really, REALLY want to have my own baby (he has a son who I adore) and I want to make sure I do as much possible to help me!

Any help you ladies can give me is greatly appreciated!! (Sorry it's so long)

A healthy diet helps

I agree with the ladies above me, but you also want to get an exercise plan that works for you, it doesn't matter if you go to a gym or do it right in your own home. Make sure you work a lot on your mid section and your thighs the most helpful things while being pregnant. NO MORE SMOKING!

I agree with what the other ladies have said. No soda's and no smoking.

Thanks Ladies!! I'm on Day 3 no smoking! The coffee in the morning I need work on, I usually have one cup when I get to work!

talk to your dr about any other vitamins that you should take. no smoking, no caffine if you can help it. one cup of coffee every now and then wont hurt much. a healthy balanced diet is important too. Good Luck!!
