Pregnancy Week One

Posted by mommy 719 days ago (http://pregnancy.about.com)

Your last period has just started and you may be considering a pregnancy. Preconceptional health planning is a good idea. However, if you haven't started before now, make sure that you "act pregnant" until you know other wise. Taking a prenatal vitamin (available at most drug or grocery stores), with 0.4 mg of folic acid (to help prevent neural tube defects) is a good idea. Discontinuing any form of chemical birth control, and avoiding other chemicals such as: alcohol, tobacco (even second hand smoke), x-rays, over the counter medications, and even discussing the prescription medications you are currently taking..
