Silver Springs,

I've been pregnant three times and given birth at term with all three babies. HOWEVER, I was on Zoloft for anxiety and depression during my first. WIth my 2nd, I had premature labor at 30 weeks along- I was hospitalized on Magnesium Sulfate for a couple days and sent home on bed rest. There was stress during that pregnancy, which resulted in not only premature labor, but contractions at 20 weeks and vomiting to the point of not being able to keep even water down. With my third pregnancy, I went in for contractions at 23 weeks. Back then, they said I"d be transferred to the regular ER rather than labor and delivery! At 28 weeks, I went into labor after a long walk on July 3rd or so after the fireworks. My lower back hurt, and I was having contractions. I was hospitalized on mag. sulfate again and this time, the hospital staff "really thought you were going to deliver". It was by the skin of my teeth that I didn't. I'm telling you all this because I believe that my complications were in part due to extreme stress. It sounds like your yelling, etc. is giving you extreme stress. This can translate to the baby being stressed and, I believe, premature labor. I hope your pregnancy continues to go well! Just keep in mind what stress may do- either now or down the line.
