No, Asperger's Syndrome is an Autism Spectrum Disorder. Autism Spectrum Disorders are thought to be genetic. What we do know, however, is that Asperger's Syndrome and Autism Spectrum Disorders are the result of brain abnormalities, which cannot be caused by simple stress during pregnancy. If you are worried, talk to your OBGYN.
