Love your pregnancy/baby?

Question

So, I’m currently 10 weeks and I’m not feeling any maternal love towards my belly/baby. I find myself unconsciously rubbing my belly and do everything I’m suppose to do while pregnant like exercise, eat healthy and take my vitamins but I’m still not feeling any LOVE for the little bug. When did you have those feeling of love towards your pregnancy/baby?

Answer

Twelve weeks and I’m kinda in the same boat. I catch myself staring at my ultrasound and rubbing my stomach but I do sometimes wonder when I’m supposed to be excited. It sounds so awful, I’ve always dreamt of the day I got that positive and grew my bump then held my baby. I don’t regret anything, I do love my monster, it’s just overwhelming

Answer

With my first I honestly didn’t feel a super strong love/bond until baby was born. It just didn’t feel like a real person to me until then. I knew it was and I cared for him and was protective and healthy and nurturing. But it wasn’t a strong LOVE feeling until I met him. My second it’s different because I  see him more as a human in there since I already have one and know what this baby will be.

Answer

Don't feel bad when I first got pregnant my marriage fell apart and I became seriously depressed and actually got to the point to where I hated the baby and didn't want it but I worked on myself first and now I'm 22 weeks and more in love with my baby girl than anything! But I didn't start feeling that way until about 10-12 weeks

Answer

It was hard until I had my first ultrasound when the baby actually looked like a baby. And then once baby started kicking. Until then I didn’t even really feel any different.

Answer

I was protective probably starting around 11 weeks and now my hand is always on my belly

Answer

I find that I develop a much stronger bond when I start feeling baby move and when I find out the gender. Each of my pregnancies have been different though. For instance, my last baby was a rainbow baby so I felt so much intense love right off the bat. 
I wouldn't worry too much. It will come!

Answer

Had my first ultrasound today. Ultrasound says I’m 10w1d. Heartbeat is at 184 and she is currently head down and wiggling. 😭 My partner is currently at training (we are military) and won’t be accompanying me to my appointments till February.

Answer

Once the baby came out. Before that I just felt like I was going through the motions.

Answer

It’s easier when they start moving around. But my real mom instincts didn’t kick in until she was in my arms. I’m a way better mom than I thought I’d ever be! I’m so good at it we are having another. 🤣

Answer

Im 9 weeks and feeling the same way. I am super excited but just dont feel connected to it yet, even after having my first ultrasound. I feel like I will once I feel it move and see a bump!
