I'm six weeks pregnant and I just found out three days ago. These past few days I've been feeling stressed and very nervous. I am not sure if I want this baby. Will my nervousness and stressaffect the baby?
It might help you to know that feeling stressed and nervous is not unusual early in pregnancy. Those feelings will probably subside in a few weeks if you decide to keep it. After all, the hormonal ups and downs you're going through, your life is changing in profound ways. You are not alone in this, many pregnant women initially feel stressed about how their pregnancy and the new baby will affect their careers and other obligations. Once the pregnancy is well under way and you've told family, you'll probably feel more relaxed.
