will the worrying ever cease?

this is nerve wrecking..ever since I brought my son home..i can't keep my eyes off of him...I'm so afraid he'll stop breathing and have a brady and I won't be able to tell...it doesn't help that he likes to take shallow breathes..I know cpr if the need arises..but I really really really don't want the need to arise.

when do you ladies decided it was time to just let it go and leave them alone? meaning you weren't afraid something was going to happen everytime you turn your head?...I'm so use to him being in the monitors and I can see his respiration and heart rates...

sorry i've been posting right and left tonight

My son is 4 months old and I still worry. Granted, I don't "watch" him like I did when he was a month old. But I worry over silly little things. I think you're just in a new mom phase right now. It will pass eventually.

Nope. My son is almost 8 and I worry and fuss over him still. He's a very independent boy, fixes his own food and such (like he's supposed to) but I still check on him at night and worry about him whenever he is out of my presence. Been that way since they day I found out I was pregnant with him. It's part of being a mommy!

He's almost 4 months & I still worry. When he's asleep I keep the monitor on so I can at least hear him breathing.

I'm even going so far as to get the monitor with the little screen so I can SEE my baby this time around!

my daughter is 17 months this week and I still worry! It never stops.... thats motherhood!

Oh god I know! Wyatt just came home today and I dont know what to do without those monitors. On the car ride home I was freaking out had to look back at him at every stop light.
