Red face Feeling slightly paranoid about my 2 DD's

Well the title says it all I guess

Since having DD2 4 weeks ago I am just feeling like I am being fairly paranoid about both my girls' well being. For eg DD2 has had a cold over the last few days and now I am stressing that it might be whooping cough , DD1 does preschool 3 days a week and every day she goes I worry that something might happen to her. I much prefer the days that she is at home with me and DD2. And the list goes on....

I must admit the worry is driving me slightly mental even though I know that I am probably worrying about nothing. But I feel a bit like the whole of the last year has been one big worry and I just want to not feel like this anymore!

Anyway, I don't really know what I hope to gain by this post maybe just to get it off my chest, or to feel like I am not the only one to be like this...thanks for reading.

Sending you big hugs and please know you are not the only one to worry. I too worry about my kids and after a loss we seem to be so much more protective over our kids.

Regards,
Dianne
