time to treat your body like it's pregnant is at least two weeks before you conceive a child says the chairman of the Department of Gynecology and Obstetrics at Stanford Medical Center “Remember the egg you are pint to fertilize is developing two weekj before conception A mother’s use of alcohol drugs tobacco or a poor diet may rectly damage that egg and hence potentially interfere with conception or says Dr Mary early development” Lake Polan Polan also urges women who are taking a prescription medication to discuss the risks to themselves and the baby or pregnancy before they become pregnant For example a mother with epilepsy might need to change medication from one that was perfectly safe and effective for her but which has a high potential to cause birth defects “Since we don't know for sure when it's vital for any we will conceive woman contemplating or planning a pregnancy to live her life as if the baby inside her were already growing womb" Polan says Class I Jennifer Lee
