As a momma, how do you cope or deal with the anxieties of something always being wrong? For example, I saw something about how babies/kids should not sleep with their mouth open & it’s a sign of a larger issue. Which has sent me into a rabbit hole to figure out if my baby will develop this issue. Or my baby will hav...
