Super stressed

I'm 14 wks and had such a bad day....angry and stressed beyond explainable! I have 4 kids so I know what to expect for the most part but something just doesn't feel right! I've had chest pains and period like cramping for almost 4 1/2hrs now, no spotting or bleeding-thankfully...but am still concerned. Husband works in the medical field (is the cause of the issues at hand) and says "you need to calm down this isn't good for you or the baby." Ya think?! I'm worried about a possible mc because of how bad things were earlier-sweating, shaking, yelling, shortness of breath due to the argument.... I haven't felt movement yet so I don't know if I should worry because I know it's still early (with my twins I felt them at 9 wks). Thoughts or suggestions?

It sounds like you've had a rough day. I'm so sorry!

There are so many things that could be causing severe cramping including gas and constipation. Additionally your body's response to stress can be to target stomach muscles.

What are ways that you can distress? Not trying to sound airy-fairy but can you count 10 thinks you are grateful for right now in the midst of the tension? Focus on what is good. Take some deep breaths. I am praying you.
