Make room for baby!

As a lot of you know, I'm a tad baby crazed these days. I don't know what started it (and this has been going on for about 2 years) but it looks like I'm finally in the position to do something about it. George says it's about time we had kids.
*does the Snoopy dance*
I'm here asking for advice on what I should do to prepare. George and I decided to wait until January/February before we start trying so I have 5 months to get things in order. [Bad username or site: @ livejournal.com] gave me some great advice on vitamins (I'll be buying folic acid supplements next week). Anything else I should know? Book recommendations?

Date: 2005-07-25 09:11 am (UTC)I don't know if I can think of anything really really specific (other than you're supposed to avoid caffeine ;_;) but there are a ton of pregnancy websites out there that'll have information about the kind of diet you should be keeping and all that stuff.
I also read one time that if you're on the pill it's safer to go off it earlier and just use condoms for backup for a little while; can't remember where, though, and I think the risk of the birth control affecting the fetus is pretty low ^^; (but that probably would make it easier to conceive once you started trying)
