Im in the same boat. Im 36 weeks now. But in the beginning of my pregnancy i cried when i woke up, in the middle of the day, and cried myself to sleep. My bd wanted the baby; but chose other females over me and was sleeping with them & just completely stopped coming home. i walked around depressed and didnt eat. people say i even stressed & depressed. i honestly don't know how i snapped back into normal routine besides keeping myself busy. my bd still chooses other females over me & still sleeping with them but now he kinda just gets blocked and cussed tf out lol. & i fully understand, I'm nowhere near ready & i have FOUR WEEKS left smh

But keep your head up & do things that will keep you busy (im also 20, 21 in May). focus on school or your other kid(s) (if you have any). take your mind off of what's going on and focus on you and the baby. this WILL get better. (& to really answer the question: stress/depression is not good for you or the baby. if you have suicidal thoughts talk to your ob about antidepressants. whatever you feel, the baby feels)

I cried a lot too. Your baby can tell when you are upset, yes it effects the baby. But it is not dangerous or anything. I was very depressed at the beginning. It does get better. What state do you live in?
