Feeling Animalistic...

Jackie
Ok this is going to sound so odd, but does anyone else feel super connected to their natural animal instincts now that you have a baby? Idk why but when I'm cuddling her, I feel like super protective and idk how to describe it. Like she is my little lion cub or something, lol. I would be licking her if that was a thing humans did. I guess it's kind of like everything around me just disappears when I'm taking care of her or snuggling with her and I just feel natural like a mama bear. 
If you have no idea what I mean, I probably just sound crazy haha
