New turf help

Hello, I was wondering if someone could give me some advice please. I had new turf laid in my garden 3 days ago and it is starting to go a little yellow in places. I've scared myself by looking on Google too much and I'm paranoid now that it is all going to die. 
It has been watered every day since being laid (we haven't had much rain in my area).
Any help or advice would be greatly appreciated.

Thank you 
Michelle

    Far too soon to start worrying about it.  Some of the yellowing is probably from where it was rolled and stored prior to laying.  Given a week or so more and any genuine problem areas will become more obvious.

    Thank you so much for your reply, I think looking on google scared me a little.

    There’s a lot of scary stuff to be found by googling ... for gardens you’re better off on here ... someone will know how to help and your anxiety level will go down ... we’ll even make coffee and 🍪 🍪 😉
