What are the things you MUST have your general practitioner (doctor) check for you before you get pregnant?
In this episode of the I'm Thinking of Having a Baby podcast, I talk to Dr Kris. With 33 years of experience in general practice and special training in maternal care, she goes into detail about what kinds of preparation she will do with her patients who are planning a pregnancy.
It's quite a list, so make sure you grab your very own Blood Test Checklist here.

Wanna know if you're eating right to get pregnant faster? Don't be like the other 97%* of women who are missing out on some key foods (and baby-loving nutrients!). Get your Fertility Favourite Foods checklist here.
*A weirdly specific number, yes. A study of >5000 women in NZ found that most of them weren't eating enough of the foods we know help make the best babies. For more of a shocker, a similar study in Australia showed that 0% were eating ideally (even though two-thirds of them thought they were!)
Will you leave me a rating or review? Pretty please with a cherry on top?
