Stress in my life:
Am living in a maternity home. Am only 16. Parents disowned me. Have no where to live after I have the baby and move out of here. Have a supportive baby's father, whom I COULD possibly live with... BUT he's in college and extremely busy. Never will be able to talk to any family again. Just kinda SCARY.

Yes. I will tell you from personal experience that it will. While I was pregnant, my husband had a 6 month affair and my mother died and I HATED my job. Talk about stress. I tried to eat right and do the best thing for my child but he was tiny when he was born, healthy but tiny. I think it was due to all the stress I was under. Try your best to forget the stressful things, eat right, get plenty of rest and take care of that baby the best way you know how because when that baby gets here you may experience even more stress dealing with a newborn. Keep smiling and take care of your self

What are you so stressed about? Do you have someone you can share your concerns with? Stress in not good over the long term,
You need a support system. Maybe there are some organizations that can help with whatever is stressing you out so badly.

Given that a fetus also feels your emotions, you are potentially creating a child who will have some emotional issues as it grows older - many people go through stress when they are pregnant, and then they wonder why for the next 20 years why their children are so high strung.

Yes, definitely, I miscarried my 3rd pregnancy due to extreme stress caused by a natural disaster.
Please do whatever you have to, protect yourself and you baby before it's too late.
And also, what Jonjon said is true, too.

It all depends on how well you handle the stress normally. If you are able to tolerate fairly well evrything should be okay but I would definitely talk to your doctor about it.
