What is Pre-Pregnancy Planning?

Pre-pregnancy planning involves taking proactive steps to optimise your health and fertility before conception. By preparing in advance, you can improve your chances of conceiving naturally and help ensure a healthy pregnancy and baby.

Key Aspects of Pre-Pregnancy Planning

Preconception Counselling

Dr Lauren provides personalised counselling to discuss your medical history, lifestyle, and any concerns. She offers expert advice on:

  • Prenatal vitamins – Ensuring essential nutrients for fertility and pregnancy
  • Diet & nutrition – Eating well to support reproductive health
  • Exercise & fitness – Safe physical activity for improved fertility
  • Lifestyle adjustments – Making positive changes for a healthy pregnancy

Comprehensive Health Assessment

A thorough medical review helps identify and manage any pre-existing conditions that may affect your pregnancy. This includes screening for:

  • Diabetes
  • High blood pressure (hypertension)
  • Thyroid disorders
  • Genetic conditions

Immunisations & Vaccination Review

Staying up to date with vaccinations protects both you and your future baby. Our team will review your immunisation history and recommend any necessary vaccines before conception.

Medication & Supplement Review

Certain medications and supplements may not be safe during pregnancy. Dr Lauren will assess your current medications and work with your healthcare provider to make any necessary adjustments.

Lifestyle & Fertility Optimisation

Healthy lifestyle choices can boost fertility and prepare your body for pregnancy. We provide expert advice on:

  • Maintaining a balanced diet rich in fertility-boosting nutrients
