Pregnant after IF

If you have a stressful job...

Do you ever worry that it will have a negative impact on your pregnancy? I'm a preschool teacher and I am typically in a classroom alone with 12 three year olds. Sometimes I have help, but other times I do not so it can get very stressful very quickly.

Today was a particularly stressful day and I worry that maybe I'm trying to do too much. I was on my feet all day (except for the frequently interrupted 10 min I had to eat my lunch) and at the end of the day my back was pretty sore. I obviously just don't want to do anything to hurt this pregnancy or our baby. But I don't know what else to do. I can try and take it easier - and I will - but really, that's just the job. My job will always be stressful. I thought about looking for a more low-key job but, really, while I'm pregnant? And I'm not really sure that anyone's hiring anyways.

Thoughts/opinions? What would you do if you were in my position?

We also glory in our sufferings, because we know that suffering produces perseverance; perseverance, character; and character, hope. And HOPE does not dissappoint.
Romans 5:3-5
