Take some time out 4 u.. do something u love doing without stressing about er'thing. If not u'll go crazy. If u like to shop do that or jus take some time and read a book, u could also run urself a nice warm bubble bath and jus lay in the tub for like an hour or soo. That's always calming..

How are you with tea? Get some regular decaf tea and put a touch of lemon and cream and/or sugar in it. It might help you relax. Baths are a nice way to ease stress too.
Buy a nice soothing environmental CD, something you enjoy, surf, rain, waterfalls, whatever. Put it on when you can lay down for a few minutes, close your eyes and realax.
Warm or cool cloths on your forehead can also help.
Get a pedicure, that is always a great relaxer.
Have your fiance give you a back rub.
Call your mom, try to get thing right, ask her what she did when she was stressed and pregnant.
Sex might help too...:)
I hope everything is okay with your dog and you get back to a normal living environment. Take care of yourself and that baby...for the next 9 months, you come first!

I'm sorry to hear your so stressed. Here are some things you might consider. Go for a long walk. Take a hot bath.
Have a cup of green tea. Possibly go get a massage. If you like beer, drink a couple. You will feel mellow and relaxed. Sometimes things happen for a reason. You may not realize it now but something very good will come out of all of this. Always remember when something negative happens, something positive will follow.

Exercise. you don't need to do anything heavy or extreme. Just get out of the house and walk. This will help clear your head as well as relieve your body of stress. And when you begin to feel the stress ease up do not stop walking. Continue b/c it will help when you deliver your baby also. Also try deep breathing in a quite and dark room. Ask your boyfriend to give you a full body massage. If you are pressed for time just do your neck, shoulders and head or your feet and calves. And remember it could be worst so keep your head up. Good luck to your and your family.

Take a few minutes and just breathe. Let every muscle relax and just forget about everything for a moment. It's not to say it will go away, it's just that you will have a clearer mind on how to take the next step. I know that I got stessed with some family issues too, while I was pregnant and although there were no lasting effects on my son, I know that it didn't make me feel that great, so I really had to focus on what I NEEDED to do to be healthy and strong for myself and my baby.
Good luck

Just remember you and your babies health is the most important thing right now.
Keep animals in perspective. Our views on certain animals are completely conditioned by cultural values. In Korea a dog is just another celophane wrapped option in the meat aisle at the supermarket. Many Eastern cultures think we are sick and unholy for eating cows. Point? An animal will never be equal to a child. You'll understand that when baby is born.

First Congadulations. You need to relax honey. Take care of the puppy. He needs you to. My doggie went blind about a year ago and he had to have eye surgery.
Most of all, and I am going out on a limb here, do not be mad at your mom and dad for kicking you out of the house. If anything is stressing you out it is that. They did what they felt they should do. I think they were wrong, but it was thier choice.

So you aren't a mommy yet? They kicked you and your boyfriend and your dog out? I say he's your boyfriend because any guy worth his weight wouldn't ask you to marry him and then live with your parents. You need to calm down by getting your life in order. With out knowing your age or anything else about you, I think you need to consider if you are ready to be responsible for a baby. Babies do need a place to live. Figure out that first before it is too late

NO HOT BUBBLE BATHS.......... But just take a breather, it will be OK your parents will come around almost always they do. I know you love your dog but believe me when your real kid gets here you will not be so worried about the dog, I did the same thing with my dog while I was prego with my dog(who know lives with my parents b/c he bites) I loved him like a child(i thought) but once that baby gets here you will never believe the love you will feel for him/her it's like nothing you have ever felt, trust me. You and only you have control of your stress control it, don't let it control you
Good luck
