Motherhood REALLY brought me into peak panic. Here's how I write about it in Afraid of All the Things:
"So I had kids. In the next phase, I was a young mom, fresh off of a miscarriage, who was certain my healthy newborn baby wouldn’t make it to her next birthday. I just knew that she’d be the first baby in the history of Earth to be absorbed by a twin she didn’t have in a womb she was no longer in. It’s never too late to be absorbed by your nonexistent twin. Or maybe she would accidentally fall out of her crib and register for the wrong college while I was going to the bath- room. I kept the hand sanitizer companies in business and I’m pretty sure the term “helicopter parent” was coined by someone who saw me “relaxing” during that time."
:) But really, it was a hard time. I'm thankful I met someone who helped me learn how to fight my fears when I was THAT person.
