I feel like my baby is mad at me
Yesterday was his tongue tied appointment so he got it cut and I cried the entire time. Afterwards he wouldn’t want to be with me. He just scream and cried the whole time I held him but when dad held him he was fine and fell asleep on him. I felt like he knew I was the one who signed the papers at the doctors so he was so mad at me. I felt so guilty about having them hurt my baby like that.. I’m happy he got it fixed but omg the screaming and crying he let out broke my heart.

I felt this heavily when my son got his done and every time I had to do his stretches afterwards too 😞 it sucks but I think the majority of the weirdness you're feeling is just from him being in in pain after not him actually being upset with you. I always made sure to give my baby extra extra love after each stretch so he wouldn't associate me with the pain. He's all healed up now and we're as close as ever again ❤️ it'll go back to normal just give it time and hang in there. It took him about 7 days before he was all the way his normal self again but we saw major mood improvements around day three

Well for starters, I hope that Dad is not the one pushing or encouraging this thought. Your baby probably just senses discomfort in that you were crying and needed calmness and comfort. When you smile, baby smiles..do think of yourself like a mirror. Focus on rebuilding that bond. Skin contact, singing, feeding, and just giving him kisses. I read that when they feed it helps relieve the pain and comforts them. In the meantime, while Dad holds him…take 10min break to yourself and practice some self care 🫶🏼
