I hate it because I still don't feel emotionally attached to my baby yet. I'm almost 18 weeks and I feel kicks, but I'm still so scared something is going to happen to the baby that I just don't want to fall in love. what do I do? :(
It took my a while to get attached to my little one too. It scared me because I didn't know what to do, the pregnancy was unexpected and we definitely weren't ready, my relationship at the time was basically on the verge of falling apart and it all seemed so much. Sooner or later though I realized that I found myself worrying about him and always wondering what if but then my husband reassured me that if I didn't care for our baby I wouldn't worry about anything happening to him and wouldn't get so so worked up over the what ifs. You're doing fine hun, you're already a good mommy because you worry and your baby will know your love.
fall in love. no matter how scary it is. no matter how nervous you are. it will go by so fast and before you know it the chance to enjoy being so close to the person you love the most will be gone. and maybe I'm wrong, but I think a baby even in the womb can feel how much you love them. maybe that is just my own hope, but better for the little one to feel loved and cherished, no matter how long or brief their time is. they deserve that love.
