Extreeme Stress!!
Posted: 02-10-06 14:00pm

Everyday I tell myself that i'm not going to scream or get riled up and everyday somebody has something to say to me to rile me up anyways!! I end up screaming and then crying because all I want to do is avoid any situation that involves getting worked up.

Of course when I start srying..The other party wants to reconcile and not get me upset...But guess what..It's too late....

I got into an altercation this morning...Bright and early and now it's been a while since i've felt the baby move....She's not responding to my stimulation and just doesn't want to move....

I've even been drinking cold water to stimulate her and nothing...I'm just really terrified that all of my stress has finally caught up with her!! What if she has like a heart attack because i'm all worked up?!?! I know my yelling isn't physically hurting her ears due to the vernix built up in them and the fluid along with the thickness of my uterus...But i'm just really concerned!!!

Should I be paranoid...And how to I avoid situations when I have no support to help stop these arguments.....My fiance tries to make others shut up and end the arguments before I get hyped up..But they don't listen!!

I need help!!!!!

The same thing happens to me. This is going to sound really stupid but try a warm bath (to relax) with bubbles and candles. Don't think about the baby moving until you've settled down some. After that see if she moves. If not try a little bit of coke. If the baby still isn't moving call the doc.

She could just be resting/sleeping herself. How far along are you? I don't remember.

Well I called the Dr. After trying to relax for a couple of hours....
They told me to drink some coke and that the little one would be just fine...

I ate lunch and waited and waited and she kicked me a couple of times...But nothing to be excited about...Ya know??

I'm 29 weeks preggy and she normally answers to my stimulation...So this is kind of weird...I didn't drink any coke...She'll be fine I guess.

Like you said..She's prob. Just relaxing...I think that in this time during pregnancy threy don't move as much as they normally do....Or at least thats what the week by week thing pointed out...Hopefully it's just my paranoia...

I wouldn't be so paranoid if people wouldn't instigate petty arguments!! Like nobody gives 2 shlts that i'm carrying another human being inside of me!!

Thanks for your imput!!! It means a lot!!

Oh I totally understand you...Normally I am not so easily worked up but my dog was being bad today and wasn't listening and so I was like screaming at her to get down the stairs and she was growling and snarling at me (lol she's from an abused home, so she doesn't like being in threatening situations) which just ended up making me madder...Gah! I am 36 weeks today and I dunno just with the last couple days i've been getting really stressed easily. I've been stressed this whole pregnancy with issues due to the father but normally when I am on my own I am fine...Then I totally freaked myself out that I was hurting the baby :( she didn't really move for a while, she's getting so big I can prod her now and usually make her move (hehe it's so cute) that was about half an hour ago and she is just starting to move around a bit...I just don't know how to keep my cool :( and I am not normally a screamer...Especially to a dog...Not to mention my abused dog...Cause I know that will get me no where with her (lol she didn't end up going downstairs she went and hid under a sofa finally). Blah it just makes me more stressed and worried thinking about it hurting the baby...It's a vicious cycle...

Babymagic0506 just realize that when you are pregnant that your hormones can caause you to be more out of control. If you do not have to be around those people that are upsetting you then don't be, ignore them, shine them on, go to the other room if you can, they obviously haave nooo respect for you for the way they are treating you while you are pregnant!

Kimmeh, don't hurt your dog or your baby, just remember, it is the hormones kicking your butt!

Good luck to you all!

Babymajic0506 u feeling better today?? And when the doc says to have a coke, if you don't want to have coke, have something very sweet---popsicle, chocolate, something and it's to get your bean up and moving again.

I feel you completely about the dog thing. I have never had so much trouble with my dogs as i'm having now. They're my babies but it seems like they know something is up cuz they don't want to listen to me. This morning I really screamed at my dogs which is so not me and then they ran and hid and I felt like such a loser. It's getting harder and harder for me to take care of them tho, I may have to give them to a relative to keep until after I have the m&m, they're destroying my house (eating furniture, pottying on the floor, tearing up trash) and I can't really clean up behind them too well because of the issues i'm having. I have to wait for someone to come and help me. They know better but they've been psyco lately. I don't want to take any chances that they'll be jealous of the m&m and hurt him.

My dr told me to have a glas of wine when I was at a point of no return which was once, im not going to lie but it did wonders and it helped me cope with what was to come cause I was able to relax that one night. Alot of people dont believe in it but talk to ur dr get his input on it or if there something else you can try......Dont think about baby moving drink a coke (have chocolate/apple/orange juice and just sit down ull feel the lil been just be mellow!!

Take care!

Yeah it seems like the more you stress the less they move, then you stress about that, it's a vicious cycle. Sorry i'm so blah today, I feel evil. :evil:

Hey guys...I'm good now..I've had a talk with the person who seems to irritate me the most. My dogs don't seem to want to listen to me either!! Lol...Normally they are the most obideient (sp?) dogs in the world....But now they won't listen to save my life....I don't get overwhelmed by them though...I just whip them....Anyways....

I got to take a trip yesterday to angola prison so see my brother in law and it took a lot of stress off of my mind... After going to angola I got to go to my godchild's 1st birthday party....It really helped!

I made a pact with my unborn baby that I would never yell or should I say get wound up again!!

It seems sometimes that she's the only one on my side...The day I got upset she wasn't moving much...But yesterday..She wouldn't stop!! Lol...All day long she was kicking,puncking, and flipping. It was sooo reassuring to feel her all day long!! Today is the same...Normally she's pretty predictible....But she's been breaking the cycle!! Lol...

Thanks for all yalls concerns and suggestions!!! They really helped as well!!!
