I am not sure: If it can cause premature labor, but it is probably not good for a prenant woman to be stressed to the degree of having panic attacks. If you are nervous, call a psychologist and learn some relaxation techniques in addition to discussing the issues that are leading to your stress. It is better for both you and your baby. Take care of yourself and let us know how you are doing.
