Is it just me?

Am I the only one who constantly checks the backseat when I finally go somewhere without the kids? Like somehow they snuck in and I didn’t know or maybe in my postpartum brain fog, I strapped one of the kids in and forgot and oops there they are when I come out of the store!! Like I finally get to be alone and also have massive anxiety the entire time, it’s fun

Same here. It's nerve wrecking. I'm always with my son though. Sometimes my mom watches him so I can go out. But yeah, I definitely check the trunk and his seat a lot lol

i have severe postpartum anxiety. literally everything has me on edge. i do the same thing

I am very rarely in the car without my son, and when I am, I have mini-panic attacks and am constantly looking in the backseat. Like he's going to magically appear there. I don't know why, but that's the way it is every time.

I got a camera for the back so I keep it turned on since I’m a paranoid mama. I’m like but what if she (the 1 year old) snuck into the car or I somehow forgot

I drive with my rearview mirror half cocked so I can see their carseats, even if they're not there. For me, it's not anxiety, it's just a habit mixed with a little bit of missing my little buddies. 🙂

Same

I check the backseat at least 5 times when I don't have my son with me. You are not alone.

I forgot my first born for 5 seconds before I turned around and got him. Otherwise my sons are too loud to forget hah so I'm not overly anxious now.
