 Stress is a really natural part of life. Many many, if not all, women experience stress during pregnancy. There's a lot of things that can come up with pregnancy that aren't necessarily related to specifically the pregnancy, including difficulties with things like paying the rent, food preparation. And worrying that the stress that you experience day to day is going to harm your baby is just going to cause more stress. Stress itself is not going to hurt the baby, but how you manage stress can impact the baby. If you are continuing to eat well, rest well, make sure that you're getting lots of nutrition and hydration, the baby's going to be fine.
