With my first, it was love at first sight.
With my second who I was so excited to meet and cuddle with, I have to say it took me a few months after his birth to feel a connection with him. He cried. He fussed. I didn't get much time with my first anymore. It was hard.
Then at about the sixth month mark, ds2 became so lovable, playful and his big personality exploded in our family. He's my little baby.
I love both of my kids and see them as two completely different babies/kids.
Don't expect the same baby or bond. It may take you longer to feel that connection, but that's ok.
I was used to my little guy who I had just spent the last 19 months with and here came this little stranger.
I'm nervous about my third but because it's my last baby I already feel like he or she will be coddled immediately. My middle child is very loved and is super attached to me, and I to him.
