Body preparations before pregnancy advice for a newbie

Well we plan to begin trying soon! I would like to know about things you ladies did before you became pregnant. I am taking prenatal vitamins right now and have tossed the birth control to the side. I heard about body cleansing. Has anyone tried that? what diet should the husband be on? was it difficult to get pregnant on the first attempt? Thank you so much!

    Get into an exercise routine so it won't be such a pain when you are pregnant.

    I started taking prenatals moths before we started trying. It's most important to make sure your taking folic acid which can help with pregnancy and is important for development. I'm a pretty healthy eater, but my husband isn't so I made sure that he was also eating more greens and less sugars. I also tracked my fertility and made sure we were only "trying" every other day so that his body had time to fully refuel in the little swimmers department! I also made sure to stop taking NSAIDs only Tylenol now! Good luck!
