I'm a newbie! From today I am 'allowed' to buy pregnancy books, I already know alot as I have always been very interested in pregnancy and looked to become a midwife at one time. I am 31yrs old and this will be our first. We are looking to TTC starting November so this will give me a good 6 months to try to lose some weight. I am pretty fit (did a half marathon last november) but have quite a few kg i would like to shift as I want to give our baby the best possible start in life and hopefully this will also make the pregnancy easier for me. Getting very excited, I will be one of my last friends to have a baby so have had alot of practice and am looking foward to having our very own
