Is it normal to want your baby all to yourself when they are born?

Im currently pregnant in my third trimester.. I have mostly felt alone/ not interested in most ppl energy. Is it normal to feel like when I give birth I just want to enjoy her and not have ppl all over her.

I wish I didn’t have any visitors in the hospital and kept my lo all to myself for as long as possible. It all goes by so quick!

YES! Mine was very protected during pregnancy and after birth. My whole time in the hospital I just wanted to stare at her and 9 months later I would let her sleep in my arms all night if I could. I look forward to enjoying the cuddles all day and the ones to come!

Absolutely, and those are your instincts kicking in! You and your little one will need time to adjust, so the less people around the less overwhelming was for me. Specially because, they want to see the baby, and sometimes they do not understand what a mother is going through.

Normal babies are so delicate and easily sick when they are born and that’s something you spent so much time creating and went through so much for I think it would be crazy if you didn’t want that time with her

I was like this with my first! I didn’t even want my husband around I found him quite annoying actually 🤣 luckily he had to leave and I got 2 weeks to enjoy me and my baby. It was quite odd because before birth I couldn’t wait for us to be a family

My village is missing

This is a late night vent session obviously but l make it short. My boyfriend and I went to a basketball game in Orlando. His sister was babysitting our son. We come back tonight for her to say he slept for 6 hours and just woke up. Now what type of shit is that. I’ve been feeling lately like no one cares for me or helps out in the way I need them to. People want to see you smile but don’t try to find the cause when you’re not. I’m an only child and my mom lives far. I feel very alone even with the dad involved. I feel alone and like I’m doing it all. I can’t even imagine having another kid which I want but this life here is tough

Sex life is 🫠

Im a little desperate already . Im not a huge fan on blowjobs but I’m doing it because I know he likes it . If he wants it in a car, during work meeting , on the balcony, on the beach everywhere I’m okay to do that . However, I’m not getting anything in return. I mean the last time he went down was more than 1.5 years ago . Okay, I was pregnant maybe he did not feel like doing it while I had a belly as he told me . , but I’m not pregnant already for awhile and I’m always telling him that I want him to go down and he is always having an excuse like “tomorrow “ etc . At the beginning it was funny and I was like okayyy but now it’s not as I’m not enjoying our sex in general . Like the process itself does not make me finish . As I’m breastfeeding and super dry down there and I’m always telling him to put lubricant as it’s hurting me . And sometimes it feels like I am begging for that as he is more comfortable without it , but damn IM NOT OKAY without it . So basically I do not remember when was the last time I have finished during sex . I understand that now with a baby it’s hard to fully enjoy it and have enough time for everything. But still . Just kiss me and put your dick inside me does not seems sexy . To be honest I understand why in marriage women does not want to have sex . Like I feel like it’s already work that I have to do not a pleasure. I’ve been telling him that but as I can see no changes applied 🫠

Whyyy?

I get horny when my man isn’t around but when he’s around and in the mood I’m not. This last Thursday he made me squirt a lot for by birthday. We only get intimate like 2 times a month.
