When my son was born, he was swapped with another baby in the hospital. A long story, but I got him back after a few hours, but since then have felt anxious when I am not with him. I think that led to a sense of being over protective of him. I was able to rationalise this and made sure my anxieties did not stop him from doing things independently of me, but it has been hard. He is 11 now and got his school report last week before moving schools. The report made me so proud of him, I cried reading it and felt a sense of everything being ok with him. That I don't need to have that constant worry about him, that to some extent he is able to look after himself when he is not with me.
It feels like quite a big moment for me, that maybe I can let go of the past and hopefully move forwards.
