Stress prior to implantation?

Question

I am currently in the two-week-wait. 4dpo. We got married in the Bahamas and are now planning a reception which has been EXTREMELY stressful. My mom and I are at each others throats over it. It's this Saturday and I am on the verge of cancelling it because it has been so hard on me. Do you think this could prevent implantation?

Second question is that we don't want people to know we are trying because we want it to be private for a while and just between us so if I don't have a few drinks everyone will know. Should I make myself mock drinks and hope no one will notice or can I have a glass or two of wine?

Answer 1

Put it off.  It isn't good to be under stress.  Let your life chill out a little then get the ball rolling again. It just makes sense.

Answer 2

Congrats on your wedding and your "possible" baby! Here is my thought (and I am sure that I am going to get some thumbs down)- have the reception, but let your mom make the rest of the decisions (easier for you and makes her happy) then enjoy your reception! I would ask the bartenders in advance to have some mock drinks you can sip all night, but go ahead and have a glass of wine- it isn't the end of the world and as long as you aren't doing it regularly while pregnant.  

Answer 3

You should just get a pregnancy test and find out before you risk damaging your unborn baby by drinking alcohol. If you're not pregnant, then drink up. You should also tell your GYN that you want to get pregnant and they'll tell you if you are healthy enough and what you should and shouldn't be doing. I would advise you to enjoy being a wife first and let the baby come when he or she's ready. These things should never be rushed.  

Answer 4

Stress can prevent it. But look at this way most people who are trying to get pregnant or are pregnant have stress. Life is stressful just think if stress ruled pregnancy none of would be here,

When you want to have a drink you or your husband make it and if someone brings one to you sip and spit back in the glass that is what i did. Just when no one is looking pour a little out.

Your welcome. Just sit back and let god work. Stess is part of everyday life. I hear you on how a mother can be my Mother in law is the same way and there are days i would love to rip my hair out

Answer 5

I'm no expert but we all get stressed out and have babies at the same time. No matter what you do you will have some stress. Its not good for you no but a majority of the time unpreventable

I think that cancelling will make more stress on your self for a lot of obvious reasons.

Just try to have fun!! Tell your mom that this is supposed to be a happy time and you don't need extra stress from her so just let her finish if you dont mind to much.

That way you will elimiante that stress pile. Then at your reception I would say a little little bit of wine cant hurt that mmuch as long as your not soakin it up.

Remeber have fun!

And to those who said you should wait... Im not married and I am trying for a baby now.. people like that just need to stick to answering the question provided.

Good luck I hope this is our month =]

Answer 6

soooo..why exactly is this a reason for stress? sounds like you're just the reason yourself...and you are creating yourself more stress. Which means you are in control to make it go away....sometimes i think people  have it too good or are bored and get stressed over stuff like this.
