Pregnancy is a joyous and divine moment for every woman – longing for the day they will hold their little one. In getting pregnant there are several crucial things couples need to consider and prepare for. As a couple you will need to visit the doctor (preconception visit) before trying to conceive, particularly those trying for their first baby, or with underlying health concerns or problems. It is best to schedule the appointment at least three months before trying to conceive, to leave enough time for any vaccines required.
