When I was a kid I had awful separation anxiety.

The past few weeks I can feel it coming with my son. I dread Sunday’s because I know I work on Monday. I stare at the monitor and worry every night even though he’s next door and I know he’s fine. I wish for him to wake up during the night so I can see him. I check on him when he sleeps multiple times. I can’t imagine leaving him with a sitter to go out because I’d miss him too much. Legitimately all I want to do is spend time with him because I’m terrified I’ll lose my bond with him.

I know some of these are normal, but I really think I might be taking it too far. Someone tell me I’m not alone here.

For the record- I’ve talked to my husband about this and he’s incredibly supportive.
