How are you doing today? Sorry, only just came across your post and wanted to see how you are.

I'm a mother myself and used to call myself "First time mother". No prior experience, will make mistakes but will fight for my child with my life if I should have to.
It is one of the most scary things when your child gets ill. I know that feeling of lying next to your child, feeling their body burning up. You just want to make your child better.
But to me it sounds like there is more behind that and I'm glad you have a therapist you can speak it through.

I have no doubt that the first time mother applies to you as well in the sense that your reflexes will kick in when needed. You are not a bad mother, you are a mother who is dealing with anxietys and being a mum. In my book that means you are getting help when it's needed.... Which makes you the best mother you can be!

Hugs to you and let us know how you are doing.
