Newborn baby

First, is there a group for people who have recently had there babies? I love talking about my labor and how everything is going but no one ever seems interested. Second, for moms who have had there babies already: I had a girl she is now 2 almost 3 weeks old. She looks exactly like wht dad and nothing like me, she loves cuddling with her dad and sleeps better with him than me, and even faces she makes and how she sleeps is just like him. It bothers me that she is nothing like me! His family is always talking about how much she looks like him and I guess it just makes me really upset that she doesn't look anything like me:/ has anyone had this problem and how did u feel?

Haha that's cool yeah my daughter is getting so big I feel like everyday she looks different. Your baby will probably get more things from you when she a little older. It's always hard to say who she going to look more like cuz they change so much. Lol

My daughter is the spilt image of her dad. She's practically his female clone and it never once bothered me. She's 2 and 1/2 now I still don't see any signs of her looking like me . . .besides her skin and hair color she's just like daddy. I'm light skinned and red hair. . . nothing we can change tho right. My daughter used to fall asleep on his chest and would be excited to see him, but now she and I are so close our mother/ daughter relation has her daddy jealous. . . keep your head up. Our daughters will always look up to us ❤

I hope she starts looking like me:/ it makes me wanna cry sometimes! November10baby, this is how my labor went.
Wednesday the 1st I was having contractions thru the night but not able to time them. Thursday morning, the 2nd which was my due date, I woke up to contractions 10mins apart. Then I went to school and they just stopped. But around 3 the picked back up and we're about 6-8 mins apart. Took a walk and they we're still the same so I went on until about 8pm, then decided to call the hospital. I went in I was 4cm and contractions about 4-6 mins, they sent me home still. They said I'd be more comfortable at home. We'll we decided just to go grab some food and go to the store so I could get a robe, and I couldn't even make it thru the store. I was curling over in so much pain I had to go back to hospital. So went back around 1am,  was at a 5. They admitted me right away. Around 4 am (I think) they broke my water. Then I had my little girl at 643am. No pain meds or anything, and I had back labor which was ******* he'll! But going natural was the best choice I could have made!
