I don't want to go into detail, and I don't want to ask my doctor about it either because I just know I'll break down crying in her office. I was just wondering if anyone has ever heard anything on the subject, or experienced this yourself? Thanks.

i was under tremendous stress when i was pregnant with my second child. i was in an abusive relationship and me and my four year old child were living in a battered women's shelter.
i didn't go into labor early, however, my child was born with extreme colic that lasted a long time. my doctor and i feared she also was deaf, this baby never blinked at loud noises. she is not deaf. she was just used to screaming when i carried her. my other two children were born in a stress free environment and were happy, easy babies. i really noticed the difference with my middle child. i have done some research on this subject and studies have shown babies born into stressful situations do have some issues. if you need anything further, go to my 360 and leave a message. good luck.

Stress During Third Trimester
2016-11-06 22:26:10 · answer #3 · answered by gracely 4 · 0⤊ 0⤋
I was induced at 42 weeks with my last (1st) pregnancy and the midwife said she didn't want to break my water if she had to because the baby hadn't dropped yet. She said there was a chance of the cord being in the wrong place (around the head/neck) and that could cut off flow to the baby - BAD! She wound up breaking my water for me when I was dilated to 8cm (almost a whole 3 days into the induction). So, I suppose that you can call that the VERY end! With this pregnancy, I do believe I dropped about 5 weeks ago... but there's 2 in there this time... fighting... all the time!

RE:
Does stress in the third trimester adversely affect mom or baby? Can it cause mom to go into labor?

sometimes stress can kick over to the baby but not necessarily make you go into labour. Usually undue stress on the mother and baby isn't such a great thing.
However, no matter how hard it is to tell your doctor, they are the best people to speak to if you are feeling stressed out and possibly not coping at the moment. They need to know how you are doing and what is going on in order for you to have the healthiest pregnancy and baby possible.
Don't keep it in, tell your doctor what is bothering you and feel free to cry in front of them. They have all been there before and know how to handle these situations. It helps to get things off your chest sometimes.
best of luck

I have actually read that stress will actually do the opposite. A stressed body wont go into labor easily.
I hope everything goes well with you,whatever it may be stressing you out ..
Good luck,and congratulations on your pregnancy :)

Talk to your doctor...dont worry about what you will look like in front of your doctor. They need to know why you are stressed out and if there is an affect, like high blood pressure, increased heart rate (fetal or yours) or protein in your urine.
Its very important to be open with your doctor...they are there to help and arent going to judge you.
Hang in there....get some help.

What ever you go thru your baby will as well. It may do more harm than good not discussing it with your doctor, as personal as it may be.
I'd swallow the pride and speak with your OBGYN.
