Excessive crying and stress = miscarriage?

Question

I've been extremely sad lately, crying for days on end, not eating all that much. So much is going on in my personal life that has really taken a toll on me and my emotions. Can severe crying/screaming cause a miscarriage? I'm currently 11 w 4 d. I will be 12 weeks this Wednesday. I haven't noticed much cramping (nothing unbearable anyway) & absolutely no spotting or bleeding of any sort. Any words of encouragement & support would be so helpful right now. Is this something I should be truly worried about? I go in for an u/s tomorrow morning but the thought that something could possibly be wrong with the baby is weighing heavy on my mind. 😞

Answer

I had a pretty tough time in my first trimester with this baby, I have a history of depression, and I was in one of my down swings. I spent a lot of time crying, and just generally being upset and stressed and I had awful morning sickness, had to go to er for fluids at 10 weeks. But I'm now 4 days from my due date and baby is great. 
With my first, when I was 6 months, my dad died, and then two months later my dog died as well. Plus a bunch of BS with my now ex. 
Just try to stay positive, you haven't had any heavy bleeding, or painful cramping, so that's good. Just because they say stress can contribute to miscarriage doesn't mean it leads to it, miscarriage happens when something goes wrong with the egg and sperm combining, meaning it's generally due to a genetic defect that is impossible to prevent or predict. 
So again,  stay positive, and do your best to find ways to help your self deal with the bad emotions, find someone to talk to or an activity that can help clear your head, some kind of outlet to help you manage in the future. Don't worry about the past, you'll be okay :)

Hey love, while stress is never good for anyone, especially a growing baby, no cramping or bleeding to date is a very good indicator you will be OK. Just control it cause it ain't healthy hunny.

Answer

Extreme stress could cause a miscarriage. If you know you're pregnant and want to try and avoid it you need to have some type of control over your emotions.
