The moment you decide you want to start a family, the journey begins — even before conception. Most couples focus on what to do during pregnancy, but the months leading up to it are just as important. A little preparation can make a huge difference to both the mother's health and the baby's development.
A visit to your gynaecologist before you start trying to conceive is one of the most valuable things you can do. This appointment typically covers:
Your body is preparing an environment for a new life. The healthier that environment, the better.
Understanding your cycle is fundamental. Ovulation typically happens around day 14 of a 28-day cycle, but this varies. Your fertile window is roughly 5 days before ovulation plus ovulation day itself.
