I am going off the pill next month and I want to be off it for 3-ish months before we start TTC, and I have started my new excercise routine and eating alot better than I was - I am hoping to loose at least 10kgs before we start TTC and hopefully even more than that before we actually fall.
I am struggling with my caffine addiction though - and it doesnt help having a 13 month old that belives that sleep is for the weak!!
So what are YOU doing on your TTc journey?? Maybe we can all share some hints and tips to help us all reach our goal!
I am comming off the Pill in 5 days!!!! EEEK! Can not believe it has come around so quick!
I have been taking Blackmores Pregnancy and Breastfeeding Gold for the past Month to get all those "Mummy" Vitamins into my system. And have been eating properly and excercising (well sometimes!).
This is what I am hoping...fingers crossed...I would LOVE to fall pregnant in March. I am getting Married in 5 Months so I was thinking that I would come off in January but wouldn't start "actively" trying to concieve until May. I am thinking because I will be busy with the Wedding and not thinking about trying to get pregnant then I will fall pregnant quicker....ie....the more you worry about it the longer it will take theory. But then again I am not getting my hopes up as it can take up to 12 months to concieve for some so I am just going to prepare my body as best I can and then see how we go!
Blondie - good luck for your wedding and I hope the being busy thing works and you fall asap!!
Ali - thanks heaps hun!
skybie - good luck tryinh to convince your DH!
Looks like I will be starting boot camp next week! My cousins BF is a personal trainer so will be doing his bootcamp mon, wed & fri 6-7am for a month!! great kick start forb me!!
We have started ttc. I have been taking my vitamins (Elevit) for 2 months now. I gave up caffeine 4 months ago, and have weaned myself off junk food (so long potato chips) and started eating much more fruit & vegies. I have also been trying to lose weight-i lost about 10kg in the leadup to christmas, but have had a break from dieting the last couple of weeks. I am getting into it now though and hope to lose more weight before i fall.
Congrats on TTC kate! I will be starting TTC #2 in Feb. I'm taking blackmores pg & bf vitamins & trying to eat right & exercise. I'd like to lose about 5kg that I put on with DS & Xmas. & I will be making an appointment with my FS just to check how everything's going.
I know what you mean about caffeine addiction. I gave up several painful times pre DS but it wasn't until I was actually pg that I gave it up for good. I haven't taken it up again thankfully. I have tried to avoid it as much as possible.
Starting my 2010 TCC Journey!!
