First, I was just tired and losing sleep. Now, I’m worried silly all the time. It’s been like that since Miranda arrived. Is she getting enough breastmilk? Is she receiving enough stimulation? The list goes on.

And now that my little one has learned to crawl and cruise, I’m always afraid that she’ll hurt herself the moment I look at something else for a split second. It doesn’t help that her favorite activity right now is pulling up over to the edge of the mattress as if to launch herself off the bed.

Is all this worry a good thing?
