Bonding with baby 😞

Having such a hard time over here. I was put on fairly strict bed rest for the first week or two postpartum due to my tearing/episiotomy. My husband has been taking care of our daughter all week (she’ll be a week old tomorrow) and I just feel so helpless because I’m not supposed to be getting up and moving around a whole lot so I never am able to help him. I feel like they’ve formed a very strong bond and since I haven’t gotten to take care of her much I feel like we haven’t. I love her so much but i don’t know if she feels as bonded with me as she does her dad. Just feeling bummed and hoping we can still form a bond at this point.
