Bringing a newborn home is scary. I remember driving home from the hospital in the back seat kind of panicking that now we were responsible for this baby. It’s a crazy feeling. When we got home I sat in the car for a while before I went into the house, just sort of processing what was going to be our new life of caring for a child. And on top of the regular anxiety of caring for a newborn, new parents are dealing with a whole other level of responsibility, because now we have to try to keep our babies safe, and figure out how to bring home a newborn in a pandemic.
