I think at this point, your stress will have minimal impact on your baby...it's still so early in your pregnancy. Keep in mind, this is a strictly non-medical opinion! :-) As Dr. Marchbein said, there is very little research into this and probably nothing to worry about. If you're interested in a little reading just for fun and intrigue, you might want to look for a book entitled "Secrets of the Unborn Child". It was recommended by my chiropractor and while some of it was dry (written by a psychologist) some of it was interesting "food for thought" if nothing else! I found it at B. Dalton and you should be able to find it at any bookstore. Unfortunately it's packed away, so I don't have the author handy.

Good luck with your pregnancy!
