Before supplements, focus on the foundations for preconception and pregnancy 🤍
These simple habits create the environment for a healthy pregnancy.
Start with the basics:
🥗 Nourishing diet – whole, nutrient-dense foods.
💧 Hydration – Water supports
circulation, nutrient delivery
and overall health.
🍷 Alcohol – Reducing or avoiding alcohol
can support egg quality
and healthy fetal development.
🌿 Reduce toxin exposure – Be mindful of: plastics, pesticides, fragrances and household chemicals.
💤 Sleep – Prioritise restorative sleep. Bypass this one if you already have young babies!
🧘 Stress – supporting your nervous system helps to regulating cortisol and reproductive hormones, which can improve ovulation, menstrual regularity, and overall fertility.
🚭 Smoking & substance exposure - avoid these to support egg and s***m quality, placental health and fetal development.
Once these foundations are in place, supplements can be helpful — but they should be individualised.
Seek guidance from a qualified practitioner to determine what your body actually needs.
Healthy pregnancies start with strong foundations.
🧑🤝🧑 Preconception care should also include the partner.
S***m quality is strongly influenced by these foundations.
