so I'm about to say something that would probably make me sound horrible....
my H just texted me "love you both" to which I replied "both?".... duh - me and baby.
does anyone not feel "love" yet? I feel very attached to this baby, I want him/her desperately and I absolutely cannot wait to meet my child who I know I will love and adore more than anything I can currently imagine... but I just don't feel that way... yet.
@bb3vj3n I'm not really "feeling" anything yet - so if you think I'm normal , then yes, totally normal. I actually think it is quite common not to feel a connection until birth or even until a few weeks in.

@bb3vj3n I think so. I felt the same way with my first and now this one. I don't think I felt truly honest love for DS until I was able to physically touch and smell and bond with him.
I have been pretty absent lately, ladies. I haven't even been lurking. I am a bit shy online to begin with, but I was super anxious about getting to know anyone before second trimester. Everyone is also farther along than I am (due 3/31). I just wanted to speak up. I am feeling much better and am really hoping to be more active and get to know you ladies. You all seem so awesome!

Just found out my husband will not be home when I go for my anatomy scan. I've decided I want to wait to find out the sex until we can be together so I'm going to have them write it down in an envelope for me to keep the extra couple of weeks and when he's finally home again, we'll open it together. A little bummed that I'll be waiting longer than anticipated, but excited to still be able to share the experience with my husband.
@notthefather girl I got you. I looked in my memecyclopedia and this was one of the first ones for party lol it seemed somewhat appropriate for my condition
@ShawnnaO it'll be all worth it for the two of you to be in complete shock together! Maybe y'all should make a little wager if you're thinking opposite sexes.
Re: Weekly Randoms - 9/18
I wont touch names names with a 10ft pole till we know genders.
We we keep telling people these awful combos (not awful names, just combos we wouldn't ever use)
rory and Tory
mason and jason
carly and Charlie
chase and grace
and it goes on and on
We've told a few people that have asked that we are naming it Eve if it's a girl. DS is Adam so we get a lot of shocked faces. It's too funny.
Edited bc words are hard.
