emotional pregnancy

taminica80

I am 18 weeks pregnant and my emotions sometimes goes through the roof. Before I found out I was pregnant, I moved from my baby's father to handle some unfinished business, now I'm always crying because I miss him so much and he and I are scared that this will affect our baby so by me crying a lot and being depressed about it will it affect our baby?

IMO stress isn't good.  You might want to consider talking to your doctor about taking something to ease your anxiety.  There are some medications that are safe during pregnancy.

I agree with this. I had just a couple very emotional times during my first pregnancy and my doctor told me if it kept happening to let him know so I could take something to help. I hope everything gets better for you and you're able to ease some stress.

I so know what you are going through.  I don't live with my SO either and i feel like i am spending hours everyday crying over it and how much i miss him.  I knew the situation i was in before hand and it just doesn't help.  I am glad i am not the only out there.  My SO is constantly telling me to relax and just go to sleep cause it is mostly at night but i don't think he can every really understand what i am going through.  All i can hope for is that this won't affect the baby at all.  I just don't want to still be going through this once she is here.
