7. Figure Out Your Ovulation Schedule
If you’re planning on getting pregnant you’ll probably read in books and on websites the time your body is “supposed” to ovulate. Everyone’s body is different and you may not ovulate on those certain days and your period cycle may be longer or shorter than the normal woman’s. Start tracking your menstrual cycle so you know the exact days you start and end your period and you can even buy ovulation tests to see when you ovulate each month. It will be important for you to know all these things so you know the most likely time each month that you can get pregnant.
8. Travel
If there’s anywhere you want to go with either your husband or your friends, then do it now! Most people take “baby moons” when they are pregnant before the baby comes, but they can be a little difficult on a pregnant body. It’s hard to travel when you’re not feeling well and when you’re belly is large, so if you can do those things before you get pregnant it will be much easier on you. Not to mention that there’s a lot of things while on vacation that you can’t do when you’re pregnant. My husband and I went to Hawaii when I was 5 months pregnant and we couldn’t do a lot of things that we originally wanted to do because I was pregnant which was disappointing.
9. Start Saving
Babies and children in general can be expensive. You’ll need to pay for diapers, wipes, all the baby toys and baby gear, not to mention college eventually. The more you can start saving now, the better. The last thing you’ll want to stress about when you’re 9 months pregnant is how you’re going to pay for your baby. You may not have a huge savings saved up within a few months, but every little bit will help.
