Has anyone else felt this way?

I have a 4 month old baby. She’s my first. I can’t help but feel like I know and do things the best when it comes to her. I don’t want to share her with anyone, not even my husband. I’m really struggling with this as I’ve just returned to work after maternity leave and I hate being away from her & leaving her with other people (my husband and my mom).

It's not at all uncommon for new moms to feel like this but if you were like on your 3rd, 4th or 5th child I think it'll be the opposite feeling 😂... Don't feel bad about wanting to be with your baby that's normal. Just remember that she is in great hands and she is safe and cared for❤️

Nah I think it’s normal. I have 4 and still feel like I do all the things best for the kids 😂 I’m the main caregiver for them - yes my husband helps but he works, he’s not here 24/7 like I am.

In the same boat as you!! It took me probably the first 3 months to even be comfortable enough to let my husband watch the baby alone without me for an hour. It’s still a struggle now

Thanks ladies! Glad to know I’m not alone. It’s hard. ❤️

You are doing whats best for her (:
