Stress while pregnant??

I'm just about 14 weeks pregnant and my boyfriend and I have a roommate (his best friend). I've felt extremely self conscious during this time and I don't feel comfortable in my own home at a time when I should feel the most comfortable. I've tried to ignore it but now it's found it's way into my sleep and almost every night I have dreams about his friend stabbing me in the stomach and I wake up in pain. I worry that the situation is stressing me out so much and it's effecting my baby... Any thoughts?

I've had lots of talks about my feelings and these dream occurrences with my boyfriend but he says he just feels torn between his friend and his new family..
I can't tell him either his friend goes or I go but I feel as if I'm having pain from so much stress he needs to come to that conclusion on his own. His daughter's health should be more important than giving his friend a place to stay.

I think you should have some one on one talk with bfs bff that or sit down with ur bf n his man and discuss this feeling you have. The only way to help you and bby out is to talk about it.

That's why I've tried to push the stress away so much that when I'm conscious it's coming out when I'm sleeping and I'm waking up in pain..
There's nothing I can do about it.. This is where I live and I just don't feel comfortable about sharing this special time in my life with someone I hardly know. I can never feel relaxed.
