No I know a woman who ran a marathon when she was pregnant and yes she exercised constantly to keep in shape for it. Turns out she had the HEALTHIEST pregnancy her doctor had ever had expierence to go through and her vaginal birth was extremely easy on her. The day AFTER she gave birth she was up getting ready for the next marathon.
IF however you are pregnant and are thinking of buying into the myth that exercising a lot can cause an abortion, think again, because you could also harm yourself in doing so. If you want to abort do it the right way and go talk to your doctor.

Most likely not. If you want to terminate the pregnancy you should go to the doctor. He/She can offer you medications that will terminate the pregnancy. If you've decided you don't want a baby don't wait until you have to have an operation.
Give Planned Parenthood a call. They are very sympathetic to women in your situation and will even help minors.

No, but if you're not used to exercising and you just start it could cause problems that would lead to a miscarriage. Or if you're not healthy otherwise--like not eating enough, etc. your body could decide you can't handle a pregnancy. The rule of thumb is that you can do whatever you were doing before you got pregnant, but you can't start anything new.

No, it does not. The fetus is protected in the amniotic sac which is a cushion of water-like substance. I would not say that it is completely safe though. My cousin pushed her car when she was pregnant and had a miscarriage days later. Be careful.

Why would you ask that? I really hope you are asking that because you want to know if, IT IS SAFE to exercise in early pregnancy.

No, only becuase your body is used to it. If you suddenly took up running 8 miles a day when you never ran before could do it. Or if you have a high risk for miscarrying, it could.

Not usually... it would only contribute to a MISCARRIAGE if you were already at risk for one.
