November 2011 Moms

paranoid momma......

First...DD is 7 months today!!! AHHH this is happening to fast!!!

now...today I took a shower while DD watched her favorite"Yo Gabba Gabba" and played in her jumperoo. This may not be a big deal but this is the first time in 7 months that she has not been in the bathroom with me or right outside the door while I shower. The whole time all I could think about was someone walking through (the locked) front doors (yes there are two deadbolted front doors) and taking her! I left the door open so I could hear her talking the whole time but everytime she was quiet, I would yell her name and she would yell back letting me know she was still there :)

Also, everytime I pick her up to carry her inside a store or even from the car to the house, all I think in my head is what if she wiggles out of my arms and falls :/ I know this sounds completely awful but i am just being honest.

Am I the only "psycho mom"? I love my rors so much that I dont want anything bad to happen to her!

  • Not at all! I actually am not sure I could leave LO anywhere other than her crib right outside our bathroom door with the door open while I shower yet. I'm not usually too worried about her being wiggly though.

    Oh, and totally off topic, my lazy butt finally sent you your stuff. There are only like 5 checks and 4 samples though, I thought there were more.

  • Ahhh thank you go admitting you keep her close while showering! DH makes fun of me so bad for it!! Also thank you for the enfamil stuff! I got them in the mail today :)
  • I'm the same way, DH always tells me to relax.  I still get up 1-2 times a night to check on the girls.

  • No you're not psycho, lol! I worry about it too, If I leave her in the other room while showering I call her name to check on her, or I even put her jumperoo in the hall in front of my door so I can peek out at her -_-   Totally normal, or at least I hope so, if not than we can all be psycho together.

  • I put DS in his infant rocker in the bathroom with me and my DD usually will stay in the bathroom if I turn on music for her to dance to. We moved recently to a house that has abnormally large bathroom and I love that I can have them both in there with me and not have to rush my shower because I'm paranoid.

    To take it further. I have not wanted DD or DS to sleep in thier own rooms because I'm paranoid about them being taking while we sleep. This has only gotten worse since we moved to a better neighborhood  since there have been home break-ins an even a home invasion robbery since we moved. I was less worried when we loved in a bad area. Add to this all the recent news about missing children and i think my kids will sleep in our room until they're ready for college. I actually have an appointment tomorrow to have the house alarm activated. Maybe then they'll sleep in thier rooms?
