FFFC--my baby hates me

I love that DH and DS have bonded, and DS giggles and laughs uncontrolably when DH talks to him, plays with him, etc. But I remember the days when only *I* was funny. Only *I* could make him laugh, giggle and smile. He was most content with me, and I could always soothe him better than anyone else.

Now I come home from work and DH is the "favorite." I know it's stupid and irrational but I can't help but feel rejected by my own baby! I try to spend as much time with as possible at night, and then ALL weekend, but I can't help but be paranoid that my baby "hates" me.

    I hear ya.  Right now I'm still DD's favorite, but I know I'll be totally bummed when someone else can make her laugh or stop crying.  I like being the only one who can comfort her or make her happy.

    I totally understand!!  I started working again (FT) and when I get home I feel so depressed DD isn't happy to see me.  She's totally content and happy being with my husband, he picks her up before I get home. 

    I know our babies love us more than anything - but yes..  it sucks!!!

    I feel the same way. I used to be number 1 and now I feel like I'm number 5 lol. She loves DH and I'm so happy they have bonded too but I feel so left out. She's so well behaved for the people that watch her and then once I get home from work she does a 180 and is soo cranky for me. I know she loves me but I can't help but feel sad. I look forward to going home to her everyday and it seems like she'd rather be with someone else. I totally understand where you are coming from.

    I feel the same way...I SAH so DD seems me all the time-when daddy comes home he is ALL she wants to see. He makes her giggle and laugh just by saying hi

    I know how you feel because I used to feel that way all the time. Since I went back to work it flipped and now I am the favorite. I am loving being the favorite and I hope it lasts!

    My DD doesn't hate my but I def think that she like H better.  It's because with work and graduate school, he sees her more often.  Thank God for the weekend, because I have working mom guilt.
