it was such a nerve wrecking experience when my son was first born , i really was so scared that anything could hurt him ! babies are pretty small and delicate they look like they might break at the slightest bump . i know , right , and i had this nurse tell me the first week he was alive , that babies have died of sudden infant death syndrome right in their parents arm ! it was so scary it 's a pretty small percentage , but it would definitely be something to worry about .
The nurse's comment about babies dying of sudden infant death syndrome triggered the feeling of apprehension.
