How long before conception should we be planning?
Preparing for a pregnancy at least three to six months before conception is beneficial to allow both you and your partner to be prepared both physically and mentally.

Why is pre-pregnancy planning important?
A pre-pregnancy checkup can help to identify health problems and therefore help to prevent many pregnancy risks by assessing:

Blood pressure
DietWeight to Height Ratio (BMI)
Alcohol and smoking status
Drug intake (prescribed and non prescribed)
Pre-existing disease
Previous immunity to certain infections
Family history of inherited or genetic conditions
Previous pregnancy problems.

Do fathers need pre-pregnancy care?
Yes. Smoking and alcohol intake plays an important part in fertility and may be an area where reduction or cessation may be helpful.
