Anxiety taking baby out

Samantha • First time mommy due with baby #1 September 2017

My baby boy will be three weeks old on Tuesday and I can't get over this irrational fear of taking him out and about. I'm afraid to go to the grocery store or to visit my employer - I constantly wonder if something will happen to him.

I need other mommies to tell me how little your babies were when you took them out. Where did you go? How can I get over this stupid anxiety?
