Stress

Stress is a bitch. It's something that everyone has no matter how easy your life is. So when you're pregnant (which is a stress in itself) and stressed about EVERYTHING else all I can think is "How bad is this for the baby?"
Well the scary truth is, really bad. I've been reading more about stress since I started having issues with it about 3 months ago and the more I learn the more I realize I could be doing some serious damage to my little Belly Bean. Studies show that the more stress the mother has the higher chances of health problems for the baby and even shows signs of high blood pressure later in life.
This is an interesting article:

So how to manage this stress. Well, I have no idea! I have a Midwife appointment this Wednesday and I'm hoping she can help me out. I'm sure I'll be writing about it in a later post cause one thing I found has help is writing it down:)
