Since I got back from the hospital with Baby Carter, I have noticed that my senses are heavily focused on every finger twitch, head roll, leg kick, sucking noise, or any other movement or sound that originates from his direction. Earlier today, I fell asleep while he was sleeping in his swing and he sneezed. It was the most adorable sneeze-similar to that of a puppy-but my mind processed it as if a glass fell off the counter and broke into a million pieces. I immediately jumped off of the couch and crawled over to him to make sure he was okay. Most of my friends have children and they warned me about the overprotective stage. One thing they failed to mention was how long the stage lasts. Will I always be so reactive to his every move?
