worried

Hi im 10w and 2d and im just not as excited or as happy as I feel like I should be. This is my first pregnancy. I really dont even feel pregnant I have had no symptoms other than nausea and loss of appetite. Is it normal to feel this way your first pregnancy? As you get further along does thos feeling go away and you bond with your baby? It doesnt help that my husbamd works third shift and is rarely awake to talk these things out with me.

Its normal love. When I was pregnant with my first son, I was happy but their wasn't a bond yet. Our bond came when I was able to feel him move and I knew he was there. For some women the bond still doesnt come until after the baby is born. Im 10 weeks pregnant with my second baby now and I know he or she is there but their isnt a bond yet. When I feel the baby kick, I know I'll get more excited. It'll come to you.

I felt the same. Lack of excitement. Its normal. As you go through more ultrasounds. See and hear the heartbeat and start thinking of names  itll become more realistic and you will begin to feel excitement.

Feeling the baby move inside of you makes a huge difference too. A little reminder, hey I'm in here! Then you can start talking things out with baby when hubby is working.
