Hi, my partner n I are looking at trying to concieve next year. Just wondering if anyone can give me tips on how to get ready physically and emotionally for a baby. Thank you

Start taking prenatal vitamins now. It will help prevent birth defects.

Also, prepare your mind for service. No one realizes how much you really have to do until you're in the thick of it. Having a baby is constant service and love.

Thanks guys. Is it not too early to start prenatal vitamins? I thought mayb a few months before and while trying but of course I'm not a parent so I'm not sure. Thanks for the advice.

It's never too early for prenatals. They do wonderful things for your body whether you're pregnant or not. Also, you could limit things in your diet that you need to when pregnant. Like caffeine, excessive fats and sugar, etc. Starting healthy habits now will create a much friendlier environment for babies to grow
And this isn't what you asked about, but one thing I did to prepare for the baby is to look on the clearance racks for baby clothes that are gender neutral and not season specific. I did that for 3 years before we had a baby and I ended up spending maybe $100 and had an awesome wardrobe started. Even though I'm sure you'll have a ton of people buying things for the baby when you do become pregnant, and you'll go shopping big time also when that time comes, it's really fun to buy tiny baby things even when you aren't pregnant

Good luck to you in the next year!

Thanks mandi. I'll look into the prenatal vitamins. I no I'm very excited now but I'm not letting family know ATM coz they r very overwhelming and will go over board now. Thanks for all the advice. Much appreciated.
