This might sound stupid- especially since we've been trying to get pregnant for 9+ months, but I have NO idea what to start thinking about now!
What did people start researching right away? I need to stay away from the "what-if's" of early pregnancy and focus on positive things to keep myself from getting too scared about losing the pregnancy so I'm looking for suggestions on things to start looking in to.
Ideas?? =)

You can start researching registry items and build an Amazon wish list...or you can look into hospital stuff! Or it's never too early for nursery planning 
I know how you feel- I had a really hard time just "jumping in" and knowing what to do once I got pregnant after being immersed in TTC!

Oh jeez I researched the crap out of EVERYTHING lol. Car seats, swadlle sacks, swings, bouncers, bottles, c-sections, etc. I read a TON of blogs and read everything on Weddngbee at the time.
Biggest thing for me that early was the nursery. And the Amazon Wish List idea is great!

I wish I researched more about baby sleep patterns. If I only knew then what I know now, lol.

haha, the first thing I looked up was what I could eat or needed to avoid during pregnancy.
Actually... that's pretty much all the research I've done, haha. I'm such a worry-wart, I'm not doing anything until I get to the second trimester!

@Adira: I am with you! I am not looking anything baby related up till the 2nd trimester. As tempting as it is.

Hospitals are a good spot, classes available in your area, gear you might be interested in (cribs, stroller, gender neutral items.)
