In case any of u didnt know I went to the doc today and I am pregnant. Wow! Im feeling a lot of different emotions right now. Me and my bro finnaly told my mom the whole story. At first she felt bad for me and wants to move. But I love where I live I cant leave everyone here just because of one ignorant man! But anywayz... Now she is unsure bout how she feels bout it cuz she was saying I should be more careful and blah blah blah. Besides that she took it a lot better than I thought she would. The police are still looking for the man, hopefully they find him soon!!

Well I have a few questions bout pregnancy.

I am very active (dance and basketball) how long can I continue to do these activities while pregnant? When can I know if the baby is a boy/ or a girl? I want a girl but either is still I gift from god Laughing

!!

Hey yazmine - well its good that your mom is taking it ok. I know it must be almost as much of a shock to her as it was to you. No mother wants her daughter to be raped. For exercising just dont be to rough or over exerting yourself. The first three months of pregnancy are crutial. And just about anything can go wrong. Not to scare you, im just telling you for your own good. As for when you can tell if its a boy or girl between 15 and 20 weeks you can go to the doctors and they can tell ya what it is. Best of luck sweetie ~melissa

Yazmine,
im so sorry to hear about what happened to you...You're so strong. Melissa's right, the first 3 months are crucial and you should take extra precautions to make sure u and ur baby stay safe....However, after that, u should be able to keep up on some activity. They say if ur active before u get pregnant, u should be able to stay active as long as u stay extra safe and healthy...And as for when u can tell the sex....Usually around 16 weeks...But babys dont always cooperate, so dont get discouraged if u dont find out on the first try....Good luck and keep us updated!

Dance you can probably do longer since it is not as strenuous, you can practice basketball at a lower pace, like 50% less. You can definitly continue just not as hard sweets. And truthfully if I were you I dont think that I would do the basketball much longer because you run the risk of falling and getting hurt, and then harming your child. You can ask your doctor. You can usually tell if it is a boy or girl when you are between 4-6 months old. I think that what you are doing takes a lot of courage because I dont think that I would be able to do it. That would be to hard for me. I have been raped before and if I were you, I still dont know what I would do. Good luck sweetie, I am here for you if you need me!!

:d tigger!! Where did you get that?? :d well I am glad that you mother is not like freaking out on you! Who is venict again?? I am so proud of you and I dont even know you. This is taking a lot of courage, and each and every time I talk to you I almost wanna cry. This is really weird for me, because I didn't think that when that happened to people that htye would have actually kept the baby. Make sure that you keep me posted, you are a strong woman(caps!)
