Pregnant. Had Panic Attack. Feeling Tightening In Abdomen. Did I Stress The Baby Out?
Hi! Last night I received some very stressful, bad news yesterday and had a panic attack afterwards. I am 17.5 weeks pregnant, and immediately felt tightening in my abdomen. This morning, it still feels tight, like a pulled muscle. Did I stress the baby out? I wish I could have a sign that the baby was alright amidst all the stress and turmoil inside me that I am feeling right now.
