Baby planning time - Cutting down on cigarettes, drugs & alcohol

If you or your partner smoke, drink or take street drugs, you are reducing the chances of conception of your baby and inhibiting your fertility. If you are heavily addicted to any or all of them, you will need to do some serious thinking about breaking your addiction or using alternatives now as continuing these habits into pregnancy will harm your unborn baby. It may seem like a colossal task but when you know that your efforts will be rewarded by a healthy baby, you will want to at least give it a try.
