Read "What To Expect When You're Expecting".

Eat a good balanced diet with lots of whole grains and vegetables and fruit. Drink lots of milk. Avoid smoking, drinking and cats. Don't eat much fish.
I had my first when I was 20. It took me a while to develop the patience and perspective I needed to be a good mom.

Great advice!
Also, avoid stress, drink lots of water, and take a childbirth preparation class. It is available at most hospitals. The Lamaze class I took was very helpful.

Get exercise, too, but check with your doctor.

Find a good prenatal vitamin (one with plenty of folate), see your OB dr. as soon as possible and go to your OB scheduled visits.
