stress

[Chippretta]

I know that stress isn't good for you at anytime but does anyone know how it effects your pregnancy? My child's father recently inform me that he never wants to see me or talk to me again. Personally I don't care but I'm losing sleep over how mt daughter will beaffected by this. I can't imagine life without my dad. And I'm thinking about the horror stories of females with daddy issues. That has me stressed, how much harm am I doing to my daughter if anyone knows?

The guy sounds like A jerk. There are horror stories for every situation as well as inspiring stories that lift or hopes and hearts. My father saw my sister and I as irritating distractions. Would we have been better off without him? Can't say, but trust that YOU know what is best for your child. We all have stories of how things could have been better in our lives - but that is just part of life. You are strong and will teach your child to be strong by writing a new story that feels right to you! :-)

I believe it can affect weather you have a happy or sad crying baby but then again this is not a proven fact just if you know God running to him and you'll learn she has the best dad in the universe and hell never leave either of you alone its all about FAITH no worries I know its easier said then done but what's your options ? This will keep you motivated and content get ready for her you need each other :') good luck hun

Stress isn't necessarily bad for you, it motivates us to think and take action. Most doctors will tell you it will not affect the baby but if you are stressing out too much and it's affecting you negatively then I'm guessing it can become a problem and I would talk to your doctor. Often it just helps to have someone to talk to and put your worries into perspective. Focus on providing a supportive environment of adults around your children/that they can count on, (male or female) and your child will be just fine.

You just have to take it one day at a time.  He could change his mind. Maybe he's overwhelmed.But if he doesn't, don't stress (as much). Just because he wrote you guys off doesn't mean anything. My son's bio dad stopped being involved- luckily I met a wonderful man when my son was two. Although Jake's dad stopped being involved was he was about 8, my husband had been his primary father figure since age 2 (he's 13 now).They are best budgies. It'll be okay mama:)
