When did feel an actual attachment to baby?

Question

Sorry, couldn’t do a poll option. 
I don’t feel pregnant or feel any attachment to the baby and I’m 15 weeks. Is this normal? I’m worried I’m going to be one those moms that don’t care as much. My mom never made my brothers and I, a priority to her and I don’t want to end up like that!

Answer

It’s different for everyone. For me it didn’t seem real even when I felt her kick and move, and even after delivery. I didn’t feel an actual serious attachment until about 24 hrs after I delivered. It was 2 in the morning and I was doing skin to skin looking down at her and all of a sudden I couldn’t believe how much I loved her. It is indescribable.

Answer

I felt attached the moment I saw the heartbeat. I had been trying for so long and had just had a miscarriage and wasnt letting myself get attached to the baby until I knew he was okay. Now I'm 31 weeks and cant wait for him to get here.

Answer

like I felt attached when I heard the heartbeat, then I felt more attached with I could feel him moving. 
but the overwhelming attachment happened at birth for me.

I've miscarried 3 times now so I'm actually trying really hard to keep myself disconnected for a while

Answer

I’m waiting patiently to feel some movement (17w) in hopes that really jumpstarts my connection. For now I get real excited once a month hesringthe heartbeat but then the feeling kinda fades as life goes on.

Answer

I think it’s different for everyone. Sometimes it doesn’t feel real until you feel baby move or see baby for the first time. Sometimes it happens when you find out. Both are okay and normal.

Answer

When I was pregnant with my 1st I think because it’s all unknown I didn’t have any connection to the baby until she was placed in my arms. I’m on my 3rd baby now  and had a connection from the moment I got pregnant,but everyone is different I’m sure you will be an amazing mother XX

Answer
