has anyone else worked with the infant mental health team due to lack of bond with baby?.. Feel really down about it sometimes, wish the bond was already there x
Yeah I'm hoping once she's born I'll start to feel something. Circumstances have been complicated for us and they think they're getting to the bottom of why I feel like I do but still can't help feeling really bad about it. Were you scared about having her? @winterbaby95 xx
I didn't have a bond with my daughter until she was born...it was hard to really have a bond since I didn't know if I was having a boy or girl :) But once she was born...the love I had for her was so overwhelming and it continues to grow everyday xx

It's such bull s*** how people expect dad's to take way less time off as if it's not their kid too. Dad's d...

Hey ladies !! Im backkkk!! Had to take a break for awhile because it felt like i had the weight of the world on my shoulders.
