Q: Pre-pregancy planning

Hello all, I would like some advice from Mothers.

My husband and I are planning on getting pregnant in a couple months, and I'm going crazy with anticipation. I want to get pregnant now, but we have to wait till January. I can't stop thinking about it, and can't stop wanting to plan everything. Here is the problem:

I'm currently Active Duty in the Air Force, and stationed in South Korea. My husband is here with me, but we don't know where we're going after Korea yet... so that means that I can't find a house, or buy furniture, or toys, or anything in advanced. I want to start planning and preparing for pregnancy and birth, but don't feel like I have anything in my control.

I already have pre-natal vitamins, We've been saving money, have been eating healthy, exercising regularly, and we're already looking at baby names. I've got the "what to expect when your expecting" books, and have been talking to everyone i know about pregnancy. Is there anything else I can be doing?

I need to resolve my jitters by doing something maternal, and don't know what to do... lol should I take up knitting or something?! Mad
