So I'm 5 weeks or close to it along. But I have had a stressful past 2 days. Yesterday, getting the run around on blood test results. I worried myself to death that something was wrong with my results. Was expecting results from the doctor office at 9:30am, had to wait until 3pm for them to properly tell me the news that all the blood tests came back normal. I wish they just gave a quick result summary over the phone! WTF. I almost died with worry. It was so stressful. Then today, got into a fight with DH about he thinks I should eat more food these days, but I think I will explode if I eat anything else, and he needs to understand just because I am pregnant doesn't mean I'm supposed to gain 10lbs in 1 day. He apologized later & I know he's saying it with love, but can be a bit too much sometimes.
Then had an important meeting at work with very important people. It went well but again, stressful, making sure they don't disrespect me and backing up my points, convincing them of my ideas. I was on the spot, all eyes on me, kind of meeting.
I've been decompressing with TV/movie and games now and tomorrow should be much calmer. But I now have anxiety that from argument, to the meeting, to waiting for blood results, I have done something horrible. Can these situations cause problems with the baby? Have I put it under stress? Have you gotten into arguments with family, or been in stressful situations during first tri? How did you handle it during that time?
