One good thing is that our house is pretty much open concept and we can hear her pretty well...but still!!!<br /><br />Funny you should mention the fear of running down the stairs and breaking a leg! That was the exact same thing I worried about in last week! I left a night light on so I wouldn't trip down the stairs and break my neck! Amazing how fast one can fly down the stairs and across the house to get to one's baby!<br /><br />:) I love that Maya story you just shared! 10 yrs old, 15 yrs old...30 yrs old...I guess we're always going to worry about them.Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09251507898309184477noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-22578035.post-6836792342750438482009-09-22T23:03:19.660-04:002009-09-22T23:03:19.660-04:00Dina:

I know that all of us ...That is totally normal Hun. I know that all of us new moms worry. It's our job! Since Little One is a preemie, it's natural to be a little concerned. Just know that she's much more comfortable than you are. It will get easier with time.<br /><br />(P.S. I now need to rent Terms of Endearment.

Not that anything would happen to the kid, but that they would cry and I would run down the stairs and break my leg. HA!<br /><br />We stayed in Tahoe a few years ago, and Maya was on the second floor and we were on the first. I couldn't sleep well because she was so far away. In the middle of the night some coyotes started yelling, and to my sleeping city ears it sounded like she was SCREAMING. I panicked and RAN through the house and up the stairs, and yeah, she was still asleep. My husband came with me, just in case, but he knew they were coyotes. Just didn't have time to tell me before I took off. And yeah, Maya was 10 or 11.Jhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00653383372182667361noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-22578035.post-65576555390683531882009-09-22T10:46:27.154-04:002009-09-22T10:46:27.154-04:00i know exactly how you feel!
