Healthy weight

Get down to your ideal weight for your height before attempting to conceive. Studies have shown that underweight mothers tend to have low birth weight babies. So make sure not to go below.
 
     
  • Improve your diet
    You need a balanced diet of at least three meals a day, with foods from all four food groups to provide the vitamins and minerals essential to good health. Two of the most important nutrients for a healthy pregnancy are calcium and folic acid. A good prenatal/multiple vitamin will ensure that you get enough of both. Cut back on caffeine consumption. Researchers say caffeine delays conception or relates to infertility, but it does appear to lower a woman's chances of conceiving. (Note: Caffeine may help (in some men) by stimulating sperm motility.)

     

  • No alcohol, recreational drugs, smoking
    Study after study has shown that smoking, drinking, and taking drugs are connected to low birth weight babies, miscarriage, SIDS, and behavioural problems later in life. Stopping before trying to get pregnant is best.
