Missing postpartum; am I crazy?

Am I absolutely crazy or does anyone else constantly miss how newly postpartum felt? Obviously I was physically sore and healing, but idk, looking back now (almost 14months pp), I remember this warm glow and newborn baby snuggles and scrunches and love 🩵 maybe it’s just my mom brain tricking me so I’ll get pregnant again lol

I’m only 8weeks pp but I miss the fresh first weeks of postpartum. I don’t know how to explain it but the newborn bliss was so sweet

Yes ! The newborn bliss was so good to me. Even the first few months of my baby’s life were such soft sweet months. I wonder why haha

Yes you are crazy 😐😐😐😐 babies are responsibilities first, then cuteness, we forget this and we make more and more babies ,then we wonder what happened to our man and our marriage ;/

No not crazy! I have a nearly 12 month old and miss how newly post partum felt every day. It all went so quickly. Such a transformative time of my life/relationship. Husband had time off work so we felt like such a team and getting to know our little baby and new versions of ourselves. Luckily my husband and I agree that we both want 6-8 children so hopefully I won’t be missing that stage for much longer 🤞🏼

@Leyla not sure if I’m just misreading your comment, but it’s coming across as pretty rude. I’m not a childless teenager who doesn’t know what she’s getting into. I’m pushing 30, in a very happy marriage, and in an overall great place to support another child if I did get pregnant again soon. Plus, I do obviously already have a child. I know that they are responsibilities and do not take that lightly. I love the age that my child is at now, but I often reflect upon the time in our lives when we first met and how wonderful it was. I made this lighthearted post to see if anyone else relates, not to be talked down to as if (as a mother myself) I’m not aware that having children is a huge responsibility. Also, my man and my marriage completely in line with me

I miss pp, after a c section. Being soo looked after for the first 2/3 weeks I loved it🥲now 4.5 month later I’m running round like crazy, cooking, cleaning, working and being a mum😅

Yes!!! I have been telling my partner this loads lately. We have 15 month old twins and I just want to go back to those early days when they were tiny. I miss the snuggles and how much time we all got together as a family!

@Tabitha how do i sound rude? When I say making babies are challenging and can hurt ur body and ur marriage, maybe. And we women always decide on making babies with our emotions and not our brains.also, Really glad to see a happy mama on peanut, bc so many are crying
