Ive raised my SS since he was about 2.5 yo. His mother said she wasnt ready to be a mom, left, then a month later passed away from a motorcycle accident. We have been happy in our little family for 3 years. SS is very attatched to DH and Im grateful for that since I enjoy my quiet time, reading, cooking, bathing, whatever. DH and I have been TTC for about 2 years and we finally did it! I am 10 weeks pregnant and couldnt be happier. The only problem is that everything SS does bothers me. He walks into my room in the mornings, no hi or knock, asking for dad. I just tell him he is not here. When we are together he asks DH questions that could be directed to me but routes them through daddy. It aggravates the mess out of me! Ive been feeling like Im a nanny who cooks, fixes his school lunch, does his clothes and takes care of him when we go out. I think I was loving and caring when he was younger but now that he is growing he has more of an attitude and I snap easily. I want to be a good stepmother. Im not sure if the pregnancy hormones are playing a big part or if my heart is already loving my baby more. Ive talked to my husband and he understands. I told him I dont know what a mothers love feels like towards a child since I dont have a child of my own to love yet. I dont want to turn onto an evil SM just because a baby has arrived. Im not sure where I was going with this, just want to know if anyone has gone through this and how they coped. Thanks for any help.
