i had my baby a couple of months ago. before that i was not a very good driver, only got my test last year, have only ever driven locally and never in rush hour etc. i have health problems which mean my concentration is sometimes not the best and if people are talking or the radio is on i just cannot concentrate fully and am very nervous about driving anyone anywhere...i am much better on my own.
since having the baby i have only taken her to the doctors up the road... my friend lives near here and i think she is wondering why i haven't offered to take her and her newborn out, instead just arranging to meet her at her house - or she can come to mine meaning we both walk. i do want to be able to drive with the baby but i just don't feel confident, and don't want to take the risk with my and another person's baby its just not worth it. if your friend (and you didn't know she had any health issue) told you she wasn't very confident in the car and didn't drive a lot, and didn't want to take the risk with the babies, does this sound reasonable or does it just sound stupid? i feel stupid.
