ok im 31 weeks and im stressing really bad with family problems and was wondering will that cause me to go in to labor early? plus i had my first baby early b/c of strep b does that mean i will have this baby early?
Having your first baby early doesn't mean that you will have this one early, however stress can be a big factor in labor... it can either triger your body to go into labor early, or it can postpone the onset of labor... basically stress causes your body to not react the way it was meant to.
I know family troubles can be so stressful, but try to relax as much as you can (avoid them if you have to!), and take a relaxing bubble bath, or light a few candles and curl up with a good book.
Hope you feel better soon!
I had my boys just before 29 weeks... My in-laws have been driving me crazy this pregnancy, but I am 38 weeks with no signs of pre-term labor. Just for your sanity try your best to relax (easier said than done, I know), but most likely your baby will be just fine.
It's hard to say. I do know the only time I ever had strep b, was my only overdue child.
