Over anxious expecting baby no 3 in December 2006

[jobyjo]

Hi

I just need to ask, as I need to get it off my chest, but is it normal to be over anxious about my other 2 boys (5 and 3 next week) when I am pregnant with no 3. I am just a nightmare. No 2is off to Yorkshire Show with Child Minder tomorrow and 2 other children and I have visions of him being lost or snatched, and am close to tears at work worrying. I know i need to chill but this isn't like me...aaaagh!

I can understand it completely. I am also due December but no.2. In April when only just pregnant my mum and dad took my dd(2 3/4yrs) to Ireland with them for a few days. She has stayed with them so many times before but I just got into a panic about her running off in the airport or doing something really silly with my parents. In the end she was perfectly fine and we were able to enjoy a few days together in Madrid.

but I certainly let myself get over anxious about the whole thing.

lol, i have a panic attack whenever dp takes dd anywhere, to the shop, out for a walk, anything. never occured to me it was pregnancy related til you said it... thought i was just a crazy overprotective psychomom!

I made the mistake of buting a book about a little 5 yar old boy who goes missing. I started to read it last night and it made me even worse. My Mum said I should stop reading it, but I want to see if he turns up. I'm not normally this neurotic
