30 and 2nd month TTC

Alison
Hi ladies. I'm 30 years old and got married over the summer. My husband and I just started trying last month, and I'm trying to make sure I'm doing everything right. I've picked out a prenatal vitamin that I take on days when I don't drink my green drinks. I'm taking folic acid regularly. I am trying to figure out what my cervical mucus is supposed to look like, and what my cervical position is. 
Is there anything We can do to increase my chances of getting pregnant? I love kids and have wanted to be a mom for years. I have been working on my Master of Arts in Teaching, and I want to work with the 0-5 age group. Teaching is great, but I would love to have my own kids. 
Also, has anyone experienced a husband who is nervous about being a dad? My husband asks "What if they cry?" and "How do you know what's wrong?" and a few other questions. He has no memory of holding a baby and I think that makes him nervous, even though I know he'd make a great dad!
