stress

[MissJLJ]

How much does stress actually affect my baby? Im 26 weeks. I have been under alot of stress with my living situation, its horrible. Been really emotional, like extreme, i cry almost everyday, and been having problems with my babies father. Everything just piles up and i heard stress is bad, but what can happen? I don't want anything to happen, but seems like this stress is just getting worse as my DD approaches. Im worrying about so many things. i don't want my son to have some sort of problem when hes born cause of my stress, but i also just can't calm down sometimes. :/

There has been a lot of research and studies on this.  Stress has been linked to miscarriage, preterm labor, and low birth weigh.  That's why low stress is recommended during pregnancy.  I hope ladies can find ways to keep things calm low key and stress free as possible.  Good luck :)
