Does anyone else have a husband that second guess them when it comes to your child being sick? I love my husband to death but sometimes he tells me when our daughter isn't sick when i know something is wrong with her or when she isn't feeling good or being herself. it drives me crazy. How do i get him to realize that I'm not just saying that but when she is not feeling good?

Take the baby to the doctor when you have a question. Hubby can't second-guess the pediatrician.

It must be a guy thing, cause I have the same problem. I also think that as mothers we tend to worry to much sometimes. We can end up turning little sniffles and sneezes into something major. Maybe he just feels like your getting over excited and letting yourself get worked up over something that is not really threatening. Thats not saying that he doesn't believe you that she is sick but maybe he just doesn't see it as major as we moms do.

I have the opposite problem - my hubby thinks the kids are more sick than they are when they have even the slightest cold. He worries like crazy and then has me second guessing myself, only to find out that they're fine and I was right not to be worried in the first place. Talk about added stress!
