Good for you - I was also LC'ing to try to get in shape before pregnancy, but turns out I am pregnant already!
So as a first timer at this I have no advice for you other than to keep going with the lc that you're doing, to get yourself in the best shape for pregnancy. - I do feel a bit guilty that I'm an obese mum BMI 32, which stastically means that both baby and I are at increased risk of a few things, but I am fairly fit and healthy otherwise so I hope it'll be ok.

I've been taking folic acid every couple of days for the last few years just in case I got pregnant without realising. If you're not being very careful with contraception (as seems to happen once couples come around to the idea of kids soon) might be worth doing this also?

Exciting!!!
