Having a hard time connecting with the pregnancy...

👪 5/6/2016🚜👣

EDIT: This is supposed to he posted in general pregnancy, not furst trimester...

Ok, we found out its a boy & I was SUPER hoping it would be a girl. My hormones got the best of me & I cried about it for a solid 3 hours after our anatomy scan appointment 4 weeks ago. I'm 23 weeks now.

Since then, I feel like I've accepted it. I've begun planning the nursery & am excited for that. BUT, I read on this app how people are so in love with their unborn baby & even when I didn't know the gender, I simply didn't feel that way. It's neat to feel him bumping around in there & everything, but I can't say I love him yet.... I'm kind of nonchalant about being pregnant. When people ask about the pregnancy, I just don't feel like talking about it for too long. My husband is seriously more excited than I am. Like he's ecstatic. Why do I feel so detached from this baby? I'm starting to feel really guilty about it.
