Anyone experienced this yet??
Answer:
You're supposed to feel this way. When it happens, place the baby
on your belly and take a nap. It also helps to use a sling or wrap
when carrying your little girl. Snuggle often. Enjoy your new life!
im confused with ur answer
get over it and b happy ur kid is healthy
i defintly experienced that along with depression, i was ready to conceive again straight after i gave birth but knew i had to wait at least 6 months due to health reasons lol.
now my son is 6 months old and experiencing teething, im fine with just one at the moment lol.
it'll pass!
being pregnant is an amazing feeling we are so luck to experience it. and you are probable still getting use to the feelings of being back to normal i wouldn't look to much into it.
Sounds like Postpartum Depression.
Yes...what you are feeling is completely normal. You won't want to hear...'it's your hormones'...God knows I didn't, but I swear it has a physical and emotional effect on you. When you are pregnant, you get all the attention but once you have the baby, all the attention is focused on the baby. Well, you are the one that is recovering from childbirth, the one loosing all the sleep, the one doing all the care and it takes its toll. Your feelings will change within the first few weeks and months. I found it was best to talk to other new mothers and get advice on what they did to get through a certain situation or phase. Armed with information, you can (and will) be able to get through anything...Congrats on a beautiful baby girl and good luck to you!
Honey let me tell you ~ I gotcha I understand have been there... and boy was it an expierence that was happy sad scary thrilling loving and frightening all at one time. Of course you miss that baby ~ for 10 months (basically not 9) that baby was YOURS. She lived and breathed bcuz of you! You and her were together every second of everyday...and the antisipation of having her is overwhelming that everyone wants to see that new baby, and it takes her away from you. I locked me and my daughter in a room for almost one month. I ate and drank very little and just held her and cried. The first time someone gave her a bottle I almost hurt them...it is normal to feel these things and if you look at her and cry it is normal too. Now you know what your momma and daddy were always worried about when you went out, etc... The moment I saw my angel I looked at my parents and told them "I get it now"
I felt the same way when I first got home. I dont know what causes it, but I was really depressed for a few days that I wasnt pregnant anymore. It could just be the sudden change in you body (hormones). If you get to where it overwelms you to much I would call the doctor and find out what else could be done, but it just sounds like you got attached to your daughter being there with you and knowing that you was going to be a mommy. It will pass in a few day or should anyway.. Congratulations on the new baby. I hope she fills your dreams
It's totally normal. Keep in mind you've been pregnant for almost a year, and you've only NOT been pregnant since Thursday. You'll be fine. Congratulations and keep posting if it make you feel better.
Ignore the idiots.
The night I had my daughter I took a shower and started crying because it was all over and I had a wonderful pregnancy. That feeling that she was in my belly was gone and it was like I lost her but she like 20 feet away. Very weird feeling.
Yes I did with my first child. All was fine until I got home, got through the first day, had to go pee, and sat on the toilet and cried my eyes out. Its called the baby blues, it doesn't mean you're not happy to have her, but the emotional part of it is just hitting you. Gotta love those hormones! Congrats on the daughter, and you will be fine!!
i would like to say first of all congrats on your baby girl ... i never have because i have never been able to have a baby but i know a few people who have been that way and they said it was post dramatic stress syndrom also know as pdss it is because you feel differant than what ya did a few weeks ago no baby inside to nurture the easy way now it is all in person now you have to really think of the baby and your way of living ... but i was also told by plenty of woman that all woman feel differant after giving birth my sister was so happy to have her baby's she love's her baby's but now she can sleep on her tummy again ... she loved being pregnant but now she can enjoy it a whole kknew way so good luck and look on the bright side now you know your baby and she know's you
i have... it snot exactly being depressed as in post partum depression beacuse it has nothing to do with not loving you baby, but for me it was missin that big bellly and all the special treatment and it was a different kind of bond wen the baby is in your belly... i guess you were so accustomed to being pregnant that now that your not its a big change of course. It does pass before you kno it because youll be so busy wit ur new littel one.. good luck
I feel the same way you do just want to get it over with, I am 28 weeks pregnant and I want it to be over I have been so sick, After reading what you have written I am not going to take this pregnancy for granted since this is my last baby that I plan to have since it's baby # 4 that is all we can handle financially and get them through college! I will try to enjoy my pregnancy as much as can thanks a million!
Yes i felt the same way.Its like you're not doing this special thing anymore and if you were like me,i loved being pregnant.I had a wonderful experience and i didnt want it to go away.You got to remember tho,just like the Lion King taught us,there is a circle of life and that part of your circle is over and you just go on to the next thing.
Sure, I felt that way. I actually would say "I bet people get post-partum depression because they miss being pregnant". I loved being pregnant too. Now the attention is on the baby and not you. Unfortunately you'll have to just get used to it. Even with another pregnancy it will never be the same as the FIRST one.
I know how your feeling. you feel like there is a void in your life, right? well, when i had my daughter, i felt like the strangest person ever! i felt like everyone was staring at me like there was something wrong with me. I felt empty inside. i enjoyed the kicking of my little girl inside me even though she would kick me right in the ribs. for some reason, it felt good to have someone "beating me up" inside. I'm pregnant with #2 and about to pop in 5 weeks, and honestly, i'm scared and sad that when my little boy comes, i will yet have that void again. i'll be glad that i have two wonderful children, but i will feel empty inside. i've had this little person growing inside of me for nine months, and yet, he'll be out of me, and i'll be looking at him, not feeling his kicks anymore. i'm afraid of that void, but happy that i'm ending the long journey he and i have taken together. its normal to feel empty inside, it will subside as soon as you get to know your daughter on the OUTSIDE of you, and will be happy and not feel that void anymore. Congrats by the way!
Baby blues, love, Baby blues. It takes awhile for us to get back to our old selves. It takes awhile for all the hormones to get out of our body and to start feeling normal again. So, that is natural. If you stay like that for a long period of time, you need to let someone know though. Some people have baby blues for a short period of time and then others it seems to take over their lives.
Absolutly...the only thing I didn't miss was labor and delivery, (1 vaginal birth and 1 c-section)...
I had my daughter four months ago and I still miss my belly. Rubbing it, feeling her kick, it was so personal, private, and wonderfully different. I love my girl dearly, but I feel all empty inside now.
Also I guess part is because before I had this beautiful baby belly, and now I just have baby fat and flab.
