Plans

So The plan... before pregnancy

Birth-date
We have decided that we both ideally want our baby to be born almost any month but December, and because of this we are not going to start trying for the baby until the "December danger zone" has past. We will start trying around mid to late April.

Oral contraption
As I have been using this for the past 6 years it can take a wile for a woman hormones to go back to normal. You also should wait for your "true" periods to return before trying to conceive.
Once pregnant the doctor will ask you when your last true period was and will work out from that when your baby will be due.

Weight loss
As I have weight I need to loss it may cause problems with trying to conceive. I have to date lost 5 stones, and do intend on losing more weight before becoming pregnant. This will not only help with conceiving the baby but also make pregnancy easier on myself and labor. Not to mension be better for the baby.

Folic Acid (Vitamin B9)

Why do I need Folic acid? link
It is important to the healthy development of a foetus. It can reduce the risk of neural tube defects such as spina bifida. The Department of Health recommends that all women take a daily supplement of 0.4mg of folic acid before they conceive and for the first twelve weeks of pregnancy while the baby’s spine develops.
