have you ever felt like your LO doesnt like/love you? i used to think this the first week and a half. (he was always fussy with me) and only wanted me when he was hungry. in my eyes, i felt like i was just a "boob" to him. he took to his dad right away and still does.
anyway, things started getting easier between us (LO and i) we even have this thing we do when i put him to sleep. (i cradle him and were cheek to cheek and i make this "uh huh.. uh huh" noise and he does it back) then hes out!
but now, the past 2 days he seems really fussy with me.. im not stressed or anything, so i dont think im sending bad vibes.. ah! i just needed to vent and see if im being silly or if others feel this way.. but it feels like the first week and a half all over again.. except this time he gets really fussy and upset and i cant calm him like before
thanks for listening ![]()
Re: silly thought/question
today, DS and I stayed in the living room. He'd fuss and cry. If I held him, if I didn't... he was miserable. Everytime I left to pee, or get a bottle etc... he'd shut right up, and stay quiet until I walked back in the room. I was starting to think I smelled. LOL.
We have days where I feel like he doesn't like me... but for the most part, I'm his favorite (or so I tell myself).
I actually feel like he likes me more than he likes everyone else. If he starts fussing/crying/grunting when someone else is holding him he stops the momment I start to reach for him. I've also noticed that if someone else is holding him and I talke he tends to turn his head towards my voice. I don't know if i just think he recognizes my voice or if he really does either way I think it is sweet.
I will say that whenever I try to kiss his cheek he blocks me by placing his hand over his face. I don't like that he does that.
he did this with me too! but now he just seems bothered by me.. im going to assume he just wants daddy time.. since he hasnt been here much.. since work has consumed him lately
Or it could be that you are his safe place where he can be fussy and get away with it.
I am a glass is half full kind of girl
awesome way of looking at it! im going to tell myself that.. thanks!!
