Im Pregnant! What now?

So we just found out yesterday that we're pregnant and we're so happy. So obviously its time to make some changes. What am I not allowed to do now. I know I cant do my cats litter box any more (my husband isnt pleased ;)  ), You cant dye your hair, I need to start eating healthier, what else? Oh and im going to be taking pre natal vitamins. But what do I need to do to put my body in better shape to help this baby!

So yeah my period was supposed to start tuesday but I had taken a test early on  saturday and got a no so i thought that it was a no for this month but I tested again on friday and i got that wonderful coveted answer!

I recommend the book 'your pregnancy week by week" Its nt as scary as what tio expect and seems a bit more up to date to me.

Congrats! Like Laura said your doctor should give you a list of the do's and donts. Also, if you go to a salon and tell them you are pregnant they can use a special kind of hair dye (can't remember what it is called) that isn't bad for you. Also if they dont do it right on your scalp but you get like highlights or lowlights instead that too is better. :)
