what keeps you calm?

I've had a really rough week. I got into a car accident, guy didn't have insurance. Whatever the truck still works its just ugly now. We get kicked out over stupid reasons, okay.. yeah it ***** but luckily my family loaned me the cash to get another place. Moving is a pain but whatever, life happens. Woke up this morning to find out some **** smashed on the back of my truck, no back light now and its just as good as scrap metal. Not drive able. How do you ladies deal with the stress of your everyday lives? I'm worried all this stress is gonna harm my baby I know its not good for her I'm just finding it so hard to be at peace right now

My fiancé is my hugest stress reliever. He lets me vent, holds me when I get so frustrated I cry, and finds ways to cheer me up when I'm sad. If I didn't have him I'd be lost. He's my rock.

if I'm able to, on my really bad days i just stay in bed and watch TV and do absolutely nothing all day.. at least it gives me one day to not think or care about all the stress for one day

I know stress isn't good, but I was stressed out s lot. I would cry allllll the time and was worried those feelings would affect my baby. Talking to other women, and my aunt, some women are out of their mind during times of pregnancy and it'd ok. I think the stress factor matters the most towards your due date, it can cause premature labor so I've heard.  I.like to meditate to calm myself, I particularly do the betty erikson teqnique and it really relaxes me. If that might be your kind of thing, Google about it and it tells you how.
