Please be completely honest!!

When you became a Mom to your second child, did you feel any different compared to the first time around?

After I had my first child, I felt like I was on top of the world and I knew I would want a second child because I wanted to feel that HIGH again, it was the best feeling in the world! So I gave birth to my second in August 2019, and to my surprise I did not feel that HIGH I had previously felt with my first. I was sooo bummed & I didnt understand why. 6 months later and I love my second child to death, but I just do not feel that bond as I did with my first. To me, my first was perfect in every single way- everything he did was just so exciting to me. With my second, I find little things that are wrong & I compare her to her brother all the time.

My question is- is everything more intense and exciting with your first child bc everything is so new? I just want to know if what I am feeling is Normal but alot of ppl dont like to admit or is there something seriously wrong?
