I didn't change a whole lot. I watched what I ate in an effort to lose a little weight and maybe control some minor insulin resistance. But I still drank, still ate foods that are taboo in pregnancy, still worked out and participated in activities. You never know how long TTC will take. If it takes a while I think it's only made harder by the fact that you've placed so many restrictions on yourself.

I avoided alcohol and medications (except Tylenol) during the TWW. After AF showed up, I broke out a bottle of wine.

Nope, I didn't (and am not now) avoiding anything. I got pregnant on a pre-baby vacation and had a lot more alcohol than I would normally & I did the trapeze! ha

I quit smoking a few months before we started TTC ds.

I'm not a big drinker so that wasn't an issue (tho I didn't avoid happy hours, etc.) and I started taking prenatals (when I remembered to take them), it wasn't until I got our BFP that I avoided things in the first trimester (coffee, etc.) I added coffee back in (cup a day) in the second trim.

Good l uck!

I started taking prenatal vitamins as soon i came off BC. ( just the generic from walgreens) Started Temping and using fertility friend. I tried to eat healthier and still went to kickboxing until I got +

Just trying to cut down on coffee a few a week vs one or 2 a day.

I went off Zoloft and starting taking prenatal vitamins but that is it!

I made quite a few changes. It took 11 months for us to get pregnant with baby # 1, so I was all about making changes for the better to help give us any chance (I figured it couldn't hurt anyways!). I started prenatal vitamins, cut out caffeine, drank more water, and made sure I walked/jogged almost daily. I also tried to eat better.

I take a PNV and I don't take Advil during the TWW. That's about it.

I definitely drink more and try to have sushi during the TWW because I always feel like it *could* be the last time (for a while).

ETA: Starting this morning, I cut back to one cup of fully leaded coffee in the mornings. That's all I drank for years, but after DD was born my caffeine intake skyrocketed. This morning I decided I should get it back on track - more - so I had one cup at home and the a cup of decaf at work.
