Sure Thanks ! I will share recording when I am able to reproduce the same issue again ! You may close this as of now.
When you do, again, make sure you show kicking off nodemon and the requests coming in, then end the nodemon process and kick off with node within the same window - i.e. try to minimise the number of changing variables.
