It's the end of day two and I'm already exhausted. I sat there looking at my baby tonight- the one I watched come out of my vagina- and all I wanted to do was cry.
Then continued to cry myself to sleep.
I don't feel that connection. The one every mom says they get the second they see there baby. To me he's just another baby. And I hate myself for it.
I love him don't get me wrong. I'd be absolutely devastated if anything happened to him. But.. I don't know how to explain it..
The connection will come in time, I feel bad for my girls because with my new guy I feel that connection that I never had with my twins when they were born, they were my first and I thought something was wrong with me, but it’s ok because the connection came. Sometimes you just feel differently towards the littles and that’s ok too
@mamachey @samanthalynnshaw21 @aengs2 thanks guys. That does make me feel a bit better
I havent given birth yet but compared to my other 4 pregnancies I have zero connection this baby feels like a stranger!!
Many people feel the same its ok
It will pass
Not everyone has that instant connection. Give yourself sometime, you just had a baby. Your hormones are literally everywhere.
You're not alone. Not everyone feels an instant connection. I didn't with either baby (and I know many others that have said the same) and there's nothing wrong with that. Sometimes it just takes time. You just have to take it one day at a time and it'll get better. Congrats on your new bundle of love!
And congrats on your new baby as well!!!
