What happens to baby if mother cries during pregnancy?

Can crying and depression affect an unborn baby? Having an occasional crying spell isnt likely to harm your unborn baby. More severe depression during pregnancy, however, could possibly have a negative impact on your pregnancy.

Can your baby feel when you cry?

When shes sad, shell probably have a downturned mouth when she cries, and a soft body (compared with the open, shouting mouth and tense body of a baby who seems angry). Your baby will feel sad for the same reasons that you do – loneliness, discomfort, tiredness and hunger.
