When I look back I feel happy about my decision to wait all the while till I was totally ready for my baby..
Everyone who is a mother feels blessed to be a mother such is motherhood , yet some who have hurried into it at times feel that may be they were not ready that time and have regrets in some corner of their mind.Have a baby when YOU want to have...That's when you will enjoy the journey!
Now that I was happy with the idea, it was time to prepare for it!The first thing I did was went meet a Health Practitioner here looking for some advise!What I was expecting was possible health checkups etc...but the lady was indeed stupid and all she advised me to do was get cosy with my hubby...what an ass she is!!After that incident ,couple of times when I ran into her, I had a hearty laugh thinking about it all over again.
Thankfully the trip to India was coming up soon...once in India we went to see a gynaec!We went for a consultancy and I still remember that evening when we were still waiting at the reception for the Dr.....both of us were feeling so shy that we were actually contemplating running off....but we didnt!!!
The gynaec was a nice lady..she realized that we were uncomfortable and made sure that we were at ease.Among other things, she reminded me of the Biology Chapter of 10th std.
Many of my friends are still to start their family..here's a list of the top things that I remember the gynaec told me about :
Taking Folic acid tablets from 3 months before planning to at-least the full first trimester.
Check on Thyroid levels and a routine blood test.
Healthy eating and exercise.
No alcohol while trying actively.
Also I read a lot of articles, here's the site that I follow till day BabyCentre
If you are the techinical type :P , a good understanding of the ovulation calendar and understanding the basal body temperature is a good thing.
So as the first step ..I went shopping folic acid tabs!
