Good Evening all, haven't been on in a while now... approx 3 weeks I'd say. I had my DD on Dec 8th Smile She was 6lbs 14oz! I'd probably have been back on here sooner but I had to have a c-section and the recovery has been difficult to say the least... but whateve's my baby girl is here and healthy and I'm thrilled to be a mommy! Smile

This blog isn't without question though Smile Now that DD is here and I'm officially a mommy (craaaaaazy!!!) I almost feel like I have a weird non-chalant attitude regarding Ss5... It's almost like I feel like I'm not concerned as much to things he does... For instance when he has bad behavior, before I'd get REALLY bothered and I'd mention it to DH... Now, it's almost like I have this feeling of "whatever, he's not my son." Is this normal? Have any of you guys felt this way after having a child with your spouse? It's almost like I have this feeling that I'm just too concerned with my daughter now that I don't really care anymore and I feel a bit guilty for this. What do you guys think?

Anyway, it's great to be back on here, I won't be returning to work until June so I'll have lots of time to read thru all the posts I've missed Smile

Hope everyone is doing well!

Thank you so so much!!! Smile She is so so beautiful and amazing, I'm in awe of her and still in a little shock that she's mine. It's insane. I'll be honest I did have a bit of a hard time with bonding but I think that's because of the c section and not getting to have skin to skin with her until like 30 minutes after she was born because they had to finish my surgery and I was SO out of it because I didn't end up having the c section until after 30 hours of labor so I was barely hanging on.

Thank you so much, I Finally feel like I'm getting back to normal. C sections are no joke. Thankfully Dh has been amazing. I'm lucky to have him.

Ss has been pretty good with her, he was excited to meet her and he wants to hold her and he kisses her forehead every time he sees her. I was a bit worried that he would have a bad attitude but so far so good. Smile

AWwwwww - I just love new babies.

(note to the Gods - I am NOT ready for grandmotherhood just yet - gimme another 10 years please)

But they do make me all clucky.

It's why I had four LOL

I do remember, especially with the first, the just holding her and gazing at her for hours while she slept. It's a beautiful thing.

And no, C-sections I've heard are not easy, I was lucky not to have had one.

Congratulations on your baby girl. What your feeling is totally normal. It's not that you don't care about your SS it's that you no longer have the energy to be concerned with parenting him. I get it, after I had my boys I was busy with caring for them and refused to spend energy being a parent to someone else's child.
