Not feeling as connected
Hey mamas. I’m feeling like a terrible mom because i am 9 weeks pregnant with my second and do not feel attached or connected to this baby at all. I know that sounds awful. We are happy and excited but I felt so much more connected with my son when I was this early on. Is this normal? Has anyone else experienced this? How do I feel more connected? I have been buying clothes and diapers which helps but I almost feel like something bad is going to happen or the baby isn’t real… someone help please lol

I’m about to give birth and still feel a bit disconnected… it’s super normal you’re not alone 💗
I felt like this pregnant with my second. I worried that we wouldn’t have a bond or one like my first. I think having already been through it and knowing what to expect changes it a little. There’s less excitement of it being the first if that makes sense? I was excited and happy about my second but was also so focused on my first since he was still a baby. I think it was about when I went into labour that I was like oh shit this is real I’m meeting him soon. He was placed in my arms after checking he was okay and the love was there
Ppl adopt and can still feel a bond. Love is unconditional ❤️

Don’t feel bad about feeling that way. I’m 25 weeks and I’m still having a really hard time feeling connected. This will be my second too. We’re super happy and excited too but it’s almost like it still doesn’t feel real. My daughter is 3 and life gets crazy so I find it hard to focus on this baby boy in my belly. If you wanna chat and connect let me know! Best of luck and congratulations ♥️♥️
