I'm not sure if I'm meant to write trigger warning or if @MNHQ does? But it took a long time for me to move DC into own room due to SIDs of family baby so had high levels of anxiety. Have just heard 6 months old friend of friend has passed away. I have no connection other than this and I can already feel the upsurge of irrational thought and anxiety about tonight and been too frightened to put DC to bed. I would be wrong to take DC in and co sleep given the nightmare it was getting into own room wouldnt I? And please don't think I am taking someone else's tragedy for my own irrational drama. I cannot even begin to know what they are going through.

Just an update, DC slept as usual, I woke with a crick in the neck and by a jellykitchen rabbit being lobbed at my head by a delighted child finding me on their floor.
