Helicopter/overprotective mom's

Don't get me wrong you should be protective of your children's health and safety. But am I the only one who thinks most  "mom-to-be's" are over protective? Also that they act "too fragile" in a way? If you don't know if you are alloud to eat something then google it. Same goes for minor pains and symptoms, google it or call your OB! Your not gonna die if you ate a bagel with cream cheese, or beacon, or tuna because you were craving it. Just don't eat a lot (it's called moderation!) There are so many things that our mothers did with us that moms these days would have a heart attack over, but look... We survived! I think the constant freak outs and over protection is unnecessary. All it does is stress you out which is probably worse then what you're freaking out about! While I know I'm going to be a protective parent I also know I'm gonna let my kid live his own life and make his own decisions and mistakes (to a degree). While I understand the concern of parents I think that we are too concerned about things like circumcision, and vaccines, (but that's not my point so I won't go there) but my point is RELAX! Not everything is a life or death situation! You don't need to make a post about everyone of your symptoms. Google it, call your OB, or deal with it. Again this isn't ment to put anyone down I was just sick of the same posts over and over again and needed to vent. One last thing... STOP BEING JERKS! Not every post is a call for you to be an Internet bully. Have a damn conversation instead of attacking people that you don't agree with!
