I'm planning for a baby and have some questions about health checks before we start trying. What tests should my husband and I get done to make sure everything is okay for pregnancy? I'm also scheduled for LASIK eye surgery soon will that affect my baby plans? What general health and fitness steps should we focus on before conceiving?

Please do basic tests like CBC, TSH, RBS, RUBELLA IGG, HPLC, VIRAL MARKERS to be sure that all her parameters are normal and we do not need any medication or vaccine. If you do not conceive naturally for 3 months then do a semen analysis also. Best time to have relation is day 10 to day 17
