HELLO! Jus fount out im 6 weeks pregnant! First baby! First time ever being pregnant. I have irregular periods and thought I had fertility issues, but to my suprise I am pregnant at age 20!

Being over weight doesn't cause miscarriage nor does a  irregular period. But to avoid  personal health issues you can get a diet change and safe exercise routine if u feel you need to because you WILL  gain baby weight! I'm sure your lovely tho :) but stay healthy & congrats to you .
