I went to the doctor tuesday and I am 5 1/2 weeks pregnant and I am due on christmas. Dec 25th. I am excited. I told my family. My parents took it way better then my sisters. Its very stressful, but in time I know they will all accept it and be happy for me. We decided abortion was just not an option. Now I just need to know what to do next. What foods can I have and not have? What can I do to make sure my baby is very healthy?
Thanks jade
