Ok, so a little background...

I had some problems throughout my whole pregnancy, and my boyfriend had to help me with medical monitoring and other medical stuff throughout the whole thing. I have birth on the 30th of May at 35 weeks, and the birth was pretty traumatic for both of us. The baby is also in the NICU for now. Since the baby was born I've been extremely clingy towards my boyfriend. In the hospital I'd cry if he left my hospital room without me. I constantly want him to be cuddling me or kissing me or holding my hand. He went back to work on Wednesday and works 7 days on and 7 days off. I haven't been doing great with him back at work, especially since my baby also isn't home yet. I'm also having trouble feeling wanted/needed. Not only is my confidence really low right now (swollen jiggly belly, vaginal discharge, acne...yay postpartum body!) but I feel like my baby doesn't need me because he has the NICU doctors and nurses, and his daddy of course. I also feel like I'm just an added burden to my boyfriend, especially being as clingy as I have been. It's not his fault I feel this way, he's been amazing... I'm just more needy than usual and it kind of drives me nuts. I was a little codependent prior to pregnancy because of mental disabilities that I have, but nothing like this. I'm not sure if this is normal or if I should worry....
