WP just sent me a notice on my own blog to sign in

    I was replying to a post on my blog and a notice popped up saying I needed to sign in.
    Considering it was my own blog and I was not on my mobile I found this strange. Yet I did sign in.
    Then got a notice asking if I was Marina Waddingham {Yes}… then someone is using you email address to get into WP.
    When I went to accept another comment on a different post the same request appeared for me to sign in.
    Then I got an email asking me to moderate the latest comment it turned out to be my reply to the first comment.
    None of this has happened before so I wondered if something had changed with WP.

    The blog I need help with is: (visible only to logged in users)

    It sounds like your cookies may have expired while you were posting. Alternately, if you logged in on a separate computer or mobile device, this may have caused your login credentials on your first computer to expire.

    If you have any concerns about the security of your site, I’d recommend updating your password and even setting up two-factor authentication so you know no one else is trying to log into your site.
