Shenell-
I am not a medical professional; however, I wouldn't think that running
or jumping would cause harm to your fetus. Unfortunately no one can
tell you for certain whether your fetus is normal, time will tell, you
won't know for sure until you deliver your baby.
Relax and enjoy your pregnancy. It will make you crazy if you worry
about every little thing. Babies are pretty sturdy, hence the number
who are born healthy to people of all walks of life and those who
participate in unhealthy practices - which I doubt you have done.
Try to relax, eat well, take vitamins, drink plenty of water and get
quality care from an OB or a CNM- that is about all you can do for the
next 9 months.
Good luck
