Waking up in a panic

Hi.

Does anyone else have this??

Throughout the night When Ive put LO down after feeding, I wake up in a total panic thinking I've fallen sleep and dropped her. But then i look and she is as snug as a bug in the moses!

I also woke in a panic this morning thinking id not fed her, but again, the bottle was on the side and she was snoozing! So I definitely did!! Lol. Driving me mad!

Yep, I woke in a panic because I wasn't able to remember putting DS back in his cot when he was a newborn. Or I'd wake up and see his face in the folds of a sheet and think he'd been in the bed with me!

You don't say how old your DD is, but I'm assuming pretty young? It passes, getting more sleep helps.

She is 5 weeks.

Sleep varies, worst night has been 4.5/5 hours broken sleep, best night has been 8 hours broken sleep. Depends when she goes down
