Your firstborn child is the one that will put fear in you the most. As a new Mummy, you often doubt whether your child is entirely safe. Think about when they took those first steps. Your baby probably toppled over and cried. It breaks your heart! All you can do is pick them up and hold them tight. You want your children to be safe and never be hurt. Of course, by the time the second one comes along, you know it’s a natural part of growing up.

You can’t wrap your kids up in cotton wool, as much as you want to. We all learn from mistakes, and sometimes those mistakes come with bruises and grazes.
