am i the only one who feels a bond with her unborn child?

Omg since I felt my baby kick I felt a bond.... it seems like I'm already attracted to him.... I'm 23 weeks pregnant do u think he knows who I am that I'm his mother? Do u feel a bond with your unborn child? Is it crazy to feel it so soon and the baby not even born yet?

I feel it too! Especially since I found out he was a boy and saw his face on the 3d ultrasound, it just seems much realer now.  We just got a bear made with a recording of his heartbeat in it and I listen to it all the time now :p I love him so much already!

It's natural. I probably don't feel as strong of a bond with this one as with my first but I think it's mainly because I'm so busy with my teenager and my husband. Not to mention cooking, cleaning, washing, getting ready for baby, and a bunch of other things but I know as soon as I see her that will change :)

I'm pretty sure just about every mother feels a bond with her unborn child. I've felt it the day I heard the heartbeat! I cried! I talk to him all the time! Telling him about his family :)

Your baby hears you every day and listens to your heart beat 24/7. It knows you are it's momma and will recognize your voice after birth and will feel comforted listening to your heartbeat when you lie it on your chest. Every momma has a bond with their unborn child. It is called natural affection.
