Hi there, I have understood your concern. I will suggest you the best possible treatment options.

1 ) First of all I want to congratulate you for the decision of parenthood.
Please do not worry.

2 ) If you have history of regular cycles then I will suggest you to wait till 17th September .If you happen to cross the date then I will suggest you to get morning's first sample of urine tested for pregnancy. In case of doubt blood beta HCG test will be of help.

3 ) I usually suggest to my patients who are planning for pregnancy as follows -

Please opt for a healthy diet and regular exercise regimen. Include more portions of fruits, salads and vegetables in daily diet. Drink plenty of water in the day. Avoid deep fried foods, bakery products and refined sugars. Avoid substance abuse if any. Start on Folic acid, Vitamin B 12 and Omega 3 supplements at least 3 months before you plan to get pregnant. This helps to prevent many problems during pregnancy.

I hope this answer helps you.
Happy parenting.
Thanks.
