Does everyone else feel like this?

When your Lo's are ill - nothing serious just a sick bug etc, do youfind that you are consumed with worry?

When the kids are actually being sick I'm fine, oh even commented today on how calm I am "everything a sick baby wants from his mummy" he said. He said I was calm and controlled but caring too and just know what to do.
But....now lo is in bed I cant stop worrying. I'm even more worried that dd will get it and be sick in the night. I hate the idea of her waking up alone and feeling ill as she's old enough to know whats coming! I know I wont sleep tonight, will jump at every sound and be checking them constantly.

I always thought I was paranoid but a friend said today she's the same. Is anyone else like this?

  • Yes! I am the same. Will he overheat while i'm asleep? What if he's sick? What if I don't hear him? Ahhhgggr, never ending. I'm sure Nathan will be fine, and you'll be better off getting some sleep (easier said than done I know!) xxx
  • yup totally agree, we've put JJ to bed and i'm literally doing 2 min checks on him, i think i'll be going to bed really soon just so i can keep my eye on him!! x
  • omg, im exactly the same- actually started to worry that i was too over protective and anxious so its nice to know im not the only 1! my 2 girls have just been poorly and jus getting over it, but my eldest (4yrs) slept nxt to me for about 4 nights. xxx
  • yes it just cant be helped, when ever the get hurt im worse both of my older two have fallen down the stairs at least once and each time i actually had to run to the toilet to be sick.

    I think my three are trying to worrie me to death at the moment as they are all not well,
    justin the oldest just has a cold
    maya the middle one has a temp of 38.8c around 101f
    and charlie the baby has sickness and diarrhea
  • Thanks Ladies, its nice to know I'm not the only one.

    Touch wood Nathan has kept everything down today and no more dioreeah. (sp).
