Is it just me...or does your heart stop everytime the baby goes in the car w/o you?

DH is the ONLY one who ever drives w/ the baby other than me...and the times he takes him out by himself are few and far between - but everytime he does I swear my heart stops. I'm so afraid something will happen. Am I crazy or does anyone else feel like this?

I never have had that problem, I am confident in my driving and my husbands driving. I don't have any problems like that in the car or otherwise

I never worry really when she's with DH because he's a better driver than I am. But this is exactly why I don't let anyone else drive her. I would be sick.

It's not HIS driving I worry about - it's all the other stupid a-hole drivers on the roads that worry me. People who drive drunk - teenagers out joy riding - there's just too many stories out there nowChat Icon

I agree with Rachee, if you worry too much about it you'll make yourself nuts. There are soo many things that could go wrong, if we thought about them all, we'd all be neurotic. So, I try not to think about it.

I have to say, I don't really worry much about this. There's a lot of things in this world I cannot control and other drivers is one of them. I allow my family members to drive her and of course JT. I just can't worry about that because anything to could happen at anytime, whether it's with me or someone else.

She has not been in the car with anyone but me or DH, and no I don't worry with him... but like pp said, anything can happen to anyone at any time so that's that and I really don't think about it.

Car accidents happen in the house, too! Growing up, there was a house on a corner that had a car drive right into the living room! Luckily, none of the kids in the house (or adults, either) were in the room, but it just shows that if you are super paranoid, bad things can still happen. It's best to just take what precautions you can, and not worry about what "might happen".
