felt so anxious for couple of minutes... can this lead to miscarriage? I know I sound silly but I am worried for my baby. please help.

Question

I am 4-5 weeks pregnant. my question is if we get scared by some sudden noise and felt so anxious for couple of minutes... can this lead to miscarriage? I know I sound silly but I am worried for my baby. please help.

Answer

Stress and anxiety can cause miscarriage. These studies have shown that the people who miscarry are in extreme poverty, war zones, abusive relationships, and other very dangerous situations. Every day stress from life and the normal worry a pregnant person has is not enough to cause pregnancy loss.

Answer

I remember the startle from something, when it would make my heart jump, I would immediately feel frightened for my baby. 
But I also realized, as time went on, I startled more easily/intense the more I was on edge. 
The less i worried, the less intense my startled felt. (Like when my dog barked or when someone knocked on the door etc...) You have to relax. 
I remember feeling this exact way. No it's not a stupid concern but now that I'm further along, I wish I never felt this way. 
Enjoy your pregnancy! 
Worrying is the last thing you wanna do. 
Especially worrying about worrying :)
