I personally have a great life and nothing really to complain about but I'm the same way. I was like that before pregnancy too, I just have a temper and like to hear myself yell. My husband calls me crazy and says I better stop BC I'll stress the baby out. But I can't help it, I get stressed to the max over stupid little things like misplacing my car keys (crazy I know) and I yell out of frustration..  not glorifying it, as stress is never healthy for anyone but your not alone and don't stress over being stressed!

But most importantly of all, take good care of yourself! You are evidently noy enjoying yourself or having a pleasant life at the moment. A happy mommy, is a happy baby. First and foremost, love yourself enough to take care properly of you and where needed, make tough decisions. Only then, you'll be able to truly love anyone else. Real love entails care, discipline, self worth and dignity. I'm sure you'll want to be such role model for your little one.

It can affect her... I was always told that if you always get yourself upset during pregnancy then your child will cry a lot when it's born. Whether it's true or not I don't no cause I have been fortunate enough to have quite calm pregnancies but I would definitely do what the above says and seek advice. You know that it's not good for your baby to be hearing you upset and yelling and screaming so if I were you I would remove myself from that situation. How do you know you won't be like it after birth too? Again like the above states, having a new born is gonna add even more stress... Think about your baby x

Stress with her father and your home environment is unlikely to change after birth... It might just get worse! Babies are stressful by themselves, throw in a hard situation and it can becomes overbearing! I'm sorry your going through this.

But stress isn't good for pregnancy. You should be fine but there are some studies that say excessive stress can lead to miscarraige. I would try to keep as calm as possible in this precious time in your life.

I doubt it will effect her but I would say maybe you need to talk to some body so when she gets here you are not yelling bc that will affect her
