awkward question ...

TobieRose

How harmful could it be for the babies if I'm in a high stress situation? I have to decide whether or not to confront someone with unacceptable behavior, and I know I can do so in a calm fashion, but I certainly won't FEEL calm. Can my being in a high conflict situation harm them or put them in any sort of stress?

I know this is kind of a weird and awkward question ... so thanks for reading.

I'm not an expert but from what I know it's long term stress that's harmful not short term. So if this person is causing you low level stress over a long time that's worse that the stress you will have confronting them.

This. Prob more harm holding things in then dealing and moving on. Good luck!

I've always had high stress pregnancies unfortunately. Not due to the pregnancies, but other factors in life including a long running custody battle for 2 of my 4 kids. And all my babies have turned out great. Babies are so strong and can get through so many things amazingly. Like PP said, short term stress is no problem.
