I’m so worried about my transition from a mommy of one to a mommy of two. I don’t know if I could love another person as much as my three year old and I just don’t want her to feel left out in anyway. I know I’m going to love my new baby but I haven’t really connected with her. I might sound crazy, but I don’t want to be a bad mom.
What @ss3mom, said. You will feel an entirely different kind of love for the new one. And it’s made me love my older son more, seeing how he’s really stepped up as a big brother. I didn’t think my heart was capable of loving so many people (I guess husband is included in that, lol), but it’s amazing me every day
Don’t worry all you’re feeling is totally normal. I was the same way. I wasn’t too happy about being pregnant with my 2nd and it took me a while to except that. I also felt the same feelings about being worried I couldn’t love my 2nd as much as my 1st but it all goes away the moment u lay eyes on them. Love multiplies it doesn’t divide. U will love this baby as much but in a different way. My boys are so different and I love them the same amount but totally different cause they are so different. Everything will work out just fine and how you’re feeling is normal. Good luck momma u got this
Thanks so much. That’s assuring. Im glad I’m not the only one that felt that way.
@winterbabymom, no you’re far from the only mother to feel this way. I’m positive it’s pretty common. You’re welcome sometimes it helps to just hear others concerns on the matter
I promise you I had this EXACT feeling while having my second . My oldest was only gonna be 18 months when I gave birth so it was a lot. But they LOVE each other and I just always made sure to include her every time I did something with the baby. So she felt important ❤️ I’m sure it’s gonna be okay love. You’ll have the baby and wonder how you ever worried about it because you’ll love them both so much which will make everything fall into place 🙌🏼
