I started carrying my phone everywhere once I had kids. When pregnant with my second, my body had an alarming habit of totally betraying me and causing me to pass out without much warning. (Only happened a couple times, but still.) Bad enough on your own but even worse when out with a toddler. Even though I'm no longer pregnant and hope never to be pregnant again, it takes a while to get over your body being completely unreliable, as it is for many women when pregnant. I have started running phone free again but always take my phone when I'm out with the kids. Of course, I'm sure my mom had similar challenges and she somehow managed to get through the day without a smartphone . . .
