| Re: When do you stop worrying about SIDS?
Worry is such a normal part of parenting. You are not paranoid at all, just a typical mommy. Though SIDS is a worry, it is extremely rare. It is even extremely rare for a newborn tummy sleeper. The rates are not even close to 1% for them and that very low rate drops even more after the age of four months. I also hate to be the bearer of bad news, but once you stop worrying about SIDS, another worry will come along to take its place. You worry about them falling when they walk, about them having friends when they start school, doing well in school, and boy oh boy, wait till they start driving on their own! All we can do is to do what we can to teach them to protect themselves whatever the situation, and ask God to protect them. I do it on a daily basis and its the only thing that gets me through.

) and I don't know when I stopped worrying about SIDS. This was a HUGE worry for me, as I'm sure it is with all first time moms, especially when we moved him to his own room at 2 months. I don't think it would matter if we all told you that you didn't need to worry anymore because you still would. Each month that passes you'll worry less and less about it 'til you realize that you don't worry about it anymore. Then you realize that you have so many other things to worry about.
