I recommend that you prepare your body for pregnancy through a proper diet first. Did you know certain nutrient deficiencies (e.g., zinc) in mothers is linked to the development of learning disorders in children? Certain foods also contain folic acid. I would recommend balancing your diet on the side as supplements can contain very concentrated forms of the nutrient also.
