Is crying really gonna hurt my baby?

For past one week i have been upset all the time and crying for some or other reason. I am 33 weeks pregnant and its been horrible. I don't have my mother to support me and that itself makes me more emotionally weak. Also i am scared about delivery when the date is getting closer (even though i know about the whole process). Its been not really good as a whole from the starting of my 8th month. I have been terribly sad and mood-off most of the time. I m trying to be happy but i don't know whether its the pregnancy hormones or my mind. Will these all affect my baby? Please do help.. I m really worried and i really need a support at this time :(

    -hug- I'm so sorry to hear about how you've been feeling. I just gave birth two months ago and had a very hard time being without my mom. :[ I know it can be tough. Throughout the course of your pregnancy, your body changes a lot and your hormone levels can go out of control. You will find yourself much more easily saddened, provoked, or excited; it's all very natural. Sometimes the slightest nudge will send you over the edge in a mood-swing sense, so make sure you remind those around you to try to remain positive, you need this. It will not hurt your baby to cry; but undue levels of stress could have other consequences, not the least of which is early delivery. You don't want that, you still have a good 6-7 weeks to go! Until then, do things that make you happy; paint, read, write, draw, do things that strengthen you creatively. Plant a garden. Play a game. Laugh, have fun. Go to the movies! I wish I'd known how much harder it would be for me to go to the movies now that I have a baby. Enjoy these last few weeks; treat yourself to massages or a spa day or something really nice. It will do wonders for your stress level.

    Don't worry about the delivery. I know it's scary, especially if it's your first time. I just had my first baby two months ago and when I got to the hospital to be induced I cried because I was so scared. It really wasn't as bad as I was sure it would be - and I delivered naturally, without painkillers or the benefits of an epidural. If I did it, you can too! Remember that you are a strong woman! Your body was made for this. You will handle it much better than you think you will; and the moment that baby is in your arms, you will forget all about how much pain you went through to bring them here. It's only been two months for me and I really can't remember the pain so much; that's how fast you'll forget it!

    Anyway. Enjoy this time. Treat yourself. Low-impact activity is really good, so enjoy the summer and this time you have for yourself. Pretty soon you'll be spending all your time with your beautiful baby, and you will look back at this time of uncertainty and you'll giggle. You have nothing to be afraid of, and everything to look forward to!

    Remember to take a million pictures! Time will go by faster than you know. All my love to you and your baby. <3

    Crying will not effect the baby at all. I know that things seem tough now and there is a lot of worrying involved in being a parent. Try to relax and remember that everything will be fine. If you do start to stress too much, it can cause premature labor. So take a nice long bath and remember everything will be fine. And in a few short weeks your little bundle of joy will be in your arms. Good luck and relax.

    my husband deployed alittle over 3 weeks ago , and at the time i was about 8 weeks , and i cried for several days , and my baby is fine , i had an ultrasound at 10 weeks and the baby was kicking up a storm in me , you will be fine , im sure my hormones played a part in my hubby leaving also , but its okay to cry , it's worse if you hold it in ,cause then it will just eat you up inside . Good luck sweetie .
