What are your irrational fears or concerns with your LOs?

I am totally worried that DS will never learn to hold a cup/bottle and feed himself.  He started to a couple of months ago then lost total interest. I fear that we lost our chance and he will need me to hold his bottle or sippy cup forever. I know it is totally irrational since he has great motor skills, he does the pincher grasp, he moves toys from one hand to the next, he can put his paci in his mouth himself and turn it to the correct way.  What are your irrational fears?

    That she will never crawl.  She has no interest in it and is perfectly content sitting and playing.  She hates her tummy.  My mom keeps harping on me about it (she is an elementary principal) because studies show that children who don't crawl have difficulty reading in the future.  Something to do with the connections made in the brain when learning to crawl are the same connections needed to read.

    That he is going to have a speech delay, and he will be five and nobody will understand what he is saying.

    that he won't roll over in both directions... he is only rolling in one direction right now.  but honestly, this is SO not a big issue... it's more funny to me that I'm worried about something so silly. it reminds me of all the irrational fears i had week one to week seven. 

    our kids will be fine!!!  we just need to chill! :)

    I'm afraid he'll be autistic.  He shows no signs of it, but for some reason this is my fear.

    None of mine have anything to do with now or the near future.

    Because I hear/ watch too much of the "he/she was such a happy baby who was loved so much...we just don't know what happened"

    These are mine:
    Alcoholic or Drug abuser
    Getting pregnant young
    Drunk driving
    The wrong friends
    Abusive boyfriends

    That she'll be an awful person when she grows up-like Hitler or someone like that. It's weird/scary to think about-I'm sure he was probably a perfectly normal and happy baby...it makes you wonder when a person's soul starts going to sh!t.

    ...I just totally freaked myself out...
