Hi,

Oooh god where do i start?! About two weeks ago I found out I was pregnant, at first it was a shock but now me and the dad r made up! We are just going through a rough patch tho and we just argue and fight these days which leaves me crying on a daily basis because I dont know what to do! I do feel like am going mad and I am so scared incase any of this is harming the baby! We thik am about 8-9 weeks!

Can anyone please tell me if crying or being stressed is bad for ur unborn baby and will it do it any harm! Thank you for listening x x x

pregnant women are very hormonal..always have been always will be..keep this in mind. I cry all the time over dumb things..does this mean my child will be depressed .. i highly doubt it. The only time your child is effected by stress is when it is severe (i.e death, abuse)
dont worry!! just do what you can to feel better!! Your emotions are all over the place!! this is totally normal.

I think I was the worlds worst about being stressed and freaking out about everything. I had a miscarriage with the first baby so I was scared I was going to have another one and alot of stress at my house cause my brother,girlfriend and two kids moved in with us and it was okay at first but I felt like their mother and I had to support them and that was horrible. Plus we just lived in a two bed room apartment with two baths and it was really crowded, I hated it, but my little one came out just fine and is as happy and can be!!! Good luck to you and no matter what your baby will be just fine.

It is practically impossiable for a woman not to feel stressed atleast once during a pregnancy. I fought with my boyfriend alot durin gthe first trimester, at the time i didn't think i was hormonal but looking back boy was i hormonal Laughing Just try to get yourself calmed down as quick as possible especially in those first weeks

Yes, my problem was that I did not want to tell anyone because I was scared that something was going to happen again and then there was all them people calling me and just making it worse, but we did end up telling our family when I was about 10 weeks. Oh yes I was very stressed and crying all the time, yelling all the time and it was really bad. My brother told me when I get pregnant with my next baby that he is leaving the country Laughing. I thought that was really funny. Good luck to you and everything will be fine.
