I like knowing that I can see him and see what’s wrong with him. Lately, though I have been thinking about the *what if’s*. What if he gets sick and I don’t know it, or what if he get sick and is inconsolable? I know it is part of a mother’s nature to want to do what’s best for your baby and to never see him sad. But I can’t seem to squash this nagging fear lately.

I took the little guy’s temperature last night and it was 99.8. He had just had a bath, so that may have raised the temperature more than normal, and it is still below what they consider *too high* for a newborn. I really don’t like for it to be that high though! I’m definitely going to take it again tonight, he just feels a little hotter to me than he usually does. Ahhhh, the ramblings of a worried mommy,,,
