I was taking a pg multivitamin 3 months before we wanted to conceive, My Dr thought I was crazy spending $50 on a vitamin when all I needed was folate which is $2.95 so thats all I`m taking now.
As to when to tell everyone, it`s up to you we told family/friends straight away as I thought if something happened to bubs I`d need the support of my family around me.
I agree with you everything is terribly expensive, we brought a pram 4 weeks ago a Bertini Sterrable Pram, a very big pram it wouldn`t be everyones idea of a great pram because of the size but you can sterr it, we saved over $300 on this pram as it was on a 40%saving. I was hesitant at first buying it thinking it was far too early but we couldn`t resist the money saved.
I`m going through an OB and he doesn`t book us into hospital until I`m 24 weeks, you`d be best to check with your OB but he`s not going to forget you.
Re Stretch Marks- I started moisturising at 4 weeks pg, I`m using Palmers Cocoa Butter for stretch Marks and DH rubs it into me everynight, remember to do your BB`s and thighs also.
