I'm a major hypochondriac! Dr. Google is my worst enemy cause I'm always convinced I have something wrong with me. I'm even worse when it comes to my kids. My son had black poop once when he was little (it was super dark and black) and I called the on-call pediatrician in the middle of the night in a frantic state because I thought his stomach was bleeding! It ended up just being old poop. =\

@MamaMoose: I'm the opposite as well but I think because I was raised by one! My dad is TERRIBLE. I told him one time "why don't you email me on the days you feel GOOD, that would be a nice change of pace!" because I swear, at least twice a week he has something going on. He's ALWAYS at the dentist, eye doctor, med doctor. "I have glaucoma" "I have an abscessed tooth" "I have a heart condition" no. He doesn't. I think I always am afraid to say that anything is wrong with me because when I say I'm sick, I want people to believe me!!

I can't relate on a personal level, but I do know what you mean!

Unfortunately, yes DH has officially banned me from googling any symptoms. It's better for all of us.

you better believe I am! I constantly worry about DD and DS coming down with something or getting food poising. My biggest fear is barf, I hate it. So the thought of a stomach bug can make me nervous for about three days....
