I am no doc, but i read this on the net - you've to be *very* stressed to cause any obstruction. I also read stress(severe)can cause uterine contractions but i don't know for sure.During month 3-4 of ttc i saw my doc after a severe anxiety spell, wondering if frequent anxiety and stress(causes me sleep problems, cold hands and feet etc.) will delay success in ttc - she was very clear on this - as long as the egg is fertilized you won't harm it - it will get what it needs(hormones etc)! A friend of mine suffers from 'really bad' panic attacks and was told it won't pose a problem to ttc, she is very pg right now! Knowing all this has calmed my worries greatly.Good Luck!
