4. Start An Exercise Routine
Research has shown that if you exercise regularly while pregnant that labor will be easier on your body when having a baby. Your body will also bounce back much quicker and easier after having your child if you have a regular exercise routine. Even if you just walk regularly multiple times a week, that will be great for you and your baby. Exercise is recommended (health concerns aside) while pregnant because it is good for you and your baby to be active and healthy.

5. Start Prenatal Vitamins
Everyone knows that pregnant women should take prenatal vitamins daily, but it’s also important for any woman planning on getting pregnant to take prenatal vitamins as well. Your body needs a daily dose of at least 400 micrograms of folic acid to help reduce the chance of birth defects, as well as properly form the baby’s brain and spine, so you’ll want to have those nutrients in your body even during the first few days of conception to keep the baby as healthy as possible.

6. Make A To-Do List Before You Have A Belly
Once you become pregnant everything about your body changes. The first few months it’s likely that you will be very sick and be able to do very little. After that your belly will start to grow and get bigger every day making daily tasks harder to do. If you have any items on your to do list like DIY projects, moving, deep cleaning, etc. get those done before you even become pregnant. It will be much easier to handle all those things without being sick and uncomfortable.
