I'm paranoid this week about......

edited April 2014 in February 2014 Moms

I’m a pretty logical and level headed person but it seem that LO is bring out a worry wart side of me.

This is what I’m paranoid about this week……

-My MIL takes care of my LO while I’m at work, I’m secretly afraid he will think she is his mother.

-My LO just started social smiling and I feel like he should be doing it more than he does.  (I have no idea what frequency it should be, so I have no idea why I think this.......)

 

What has you paranoid at the moment?

    I saw your thread and that's what inspired me to make this one, haha.

    We can't be the ones paranoid about something.

    Paranoid about taking DD2 to a study for DD1 that last from 8:30a until 3:00p... This means nursing in public for me for the first time. What do I do with an infant in a waiting room for all those hours!?!

    I'm paranoid that my LO isn't eating enough. My MW is happy with his weight gain. But he just looks so darn thin to me. I bought him a shirt that says "Chubby and loving it" but then realized that it isn't true at all. He barely even has chubby baby cheeks.

    I only wish they had that shirt in Mama size.

    I'm terrified every time I wake up after LO has slept through the night. I'm in a panic until I make sure she's ok.

    I'm paranoid about weight gain too, but we've had soooo many feeding issues.

    I'm paranoid about how well LO is sleeping. Which is dumb. Sleeping is a good thing.

    Still worried about weight gain over here, too... I think I'll probably be worried about it until she's on solids, though.

    I'm giving a full day training workshop on Friday, and it's my first full day away from LO. My mom and dad are watching her, and my dad will be alone with her for a couple hours while my mom is out. I'm so worried she's going to scream the whole time she's alone with him and my dad will think she's a terrible kid. :-(

    I'm also paranoid about weight gain. When I was bf, I would keep track of it on my phone. Not with an app, but just in the "notes" section of my phone. We've been on formula for about two weeks now, and I still can't give up the tracking. I'm still keeping the note going on my phone with the times she ate and the amount. Even when I'm at work I will call my DH and get the info to put in my phone. I know it may be a little crazy, but I can't stop.

    When will the paranoia over weight gain end?!?!

    We're leaving LO with the ILs for a couple days since DH and I are in a wedding. I'm paranoid about my supply tanking since we nurse about 70% of the time and I don't pump very much.

    I'm paranoid about lo's first overnight trip. There's so much to take! I've been making lists at 3am.

    Totally agree on the weight thing.

    I never understood why my mom was so obsessed with how much me and my sibling were eating, I now completely understand.

    Somedays I look at LO and if I feel like his cheeks are less chubby, I almost want to cry.

    I'm paranoid about my milk supply. I was pumping and feeding LO from a bottle (due to latching/sucking issues), but am back to straight-from-the-breast feedings as of 4 days ago. After she eats, I still try to pump (out of habit, and to build up supply for when I go back to work). I used to pump about 4oz per session, but now it's only 1-2oz. Yes, I know that it's less because LO has already sucked me dry, but since I've been pumping for 6 weeks now, it is just a change I have to get used to.

    I have pretty much been paranoid about one thing or another since he came home. Lately I have been paranoid about weight gain and sleeping. He has been sleeping longer stretches and additionally not taking as much at his last bottle before bed :/ good thing he has a pedi visit tomorrow

    I'm paranoid my 6 week old has been sleeping TOO much the past 24hrs! I know I complain about her lack of sleep all the time, so this is very unusual. 2-3pm, 5-8:30pm,10pm-5:45AM!, 10-11:30am & 1pm-...now?

    I also feel like I'm paranoid all the time. MOTN googling is not my friend.  The bump is much safe, but have determined that nothing is safe for baby.  My H is getting annoyed because it seems like everyday I am telling him we can't do something.  We are changing him from sleeping in the swing to the bassinet which is leading to sleepless nights again and now I told him we need to change pacifiers based on today's discussions (we've been using soothies) ugh this is hard :(

    I also have another vote for the weight thing.  I may have taken it step farther by buying a baby scale from amazon...

    I'm truly scared of SIDS happening to us again. I don't know if I could survive. It doesn't help that I just had a dream about it and it didn't end well. I feel like I could be a helicopter mom and hover over her all night, but I sleep and pray she wakes up. She also goes to the sitter in a month when I go back to work and even though I trust her, those scary feelings are in my mind.

    We have been using a soothie too.....I don't even want to look for something else.....but I def will.

    You have no idea how many times I've had a baby scale in my amazon shopping cart. If my hubby wouldn't give me a major side eye it would be buy it in a heartbeat.
