Always fear SIDS in baby

Am i normal to feel this way. I always see videos or TikTok about SIDS (sudden infant death syndrome) and since my baby’s birth till now 3m i can never have a good rest or good sleep whenever baby naps or sleeps cause i will always check baby’s breathing every now and then even at night i will auto wake up few times even when baby has started sleeping through the night. I always fear about SIDS to the point its affecting my quality of sleep or even rest and always made me overthink the worse case scenario. Am i the only one like this. #firsttimemom

It’s normal, just make sure to keep baby’s sleeping area as empty as possible. Sometimes when my baby sleeps in the same position for too long I will check if she’s breathing 🥶.
