Hello im new! I have a question too
Hello all im new to the forum. Hubby and I have just decided we are going to try for a baby. Which is both exciting and scary!! We are just going to see how it goes and not get scientfic...yet!
I recognise some of you from YYW forum (I was Missshell)
I was wondering if you saw you dr before ttc? Just for a health check or something?

I did speak to my doctor about 3 months before, but I didn't make a specific appointment, I was there for something else.
He didn't do a health check as such, but told me to take folic acid (from then, as you are supposed to have it in your system from 3 months before you start trying) and sent me for a blood test to check for rubella immunisation. He also advised I came off the pill then too, so it had chance to get out of my system - but don't think this is definitely necessary?
Hope you're enjoying the site (I too am from YYW - Hunnybunny) and I'm sure you'll soon realise that this site is even more addictive than YYW!!!
