Are there important vitamins or supplements to add to my diet while i am trying to get pregnant?

Yes: Women attempting pregnancy should take a good multivitamin that contains at least 1mg of folic acid. That has been shown to decrease the risk of neural tube defects such as spina bifida, meningomyeolocele & anencephaly.
