guilty

[Carissa0411]

Is it weird that i dont feel as excited about this pregnancy as i did with my first son? I mean i know i will be overwhelmed with joy when i can actually hold him in my arms but for some reason im 21 weeks pregnant and still dont really feel any emotional attachment and im not as excited. I feel so bad for not feeling like i did for my first son. I was just wondering if any one els has ever felt this way. Its making me feel so guilty :( and my first son is 22 months old

This is my 4th and yeah I feel like that.  I know I will love him when he comes but the whole excitement thing I'm not feeling.  Mine could be that I have pretty much been prego for 3 years.  Lol I have a 9 yr, 2 yr, 1yr and this one is due in June.

I feel the same way. My first is two, almost three and I'm so focused on taking care of him and chasing him around and playing with him that I barely notice I'm pregnant. I feel kinda guilty like I'm not paying attention to the baby. But at the same time its good. It helped this pregnancy fly by. I'm 37 weeks and I feel great for being this far along.

I'm having my 3rd baby and it took me longer to be supper excited about her. I have a 2 and a 3 year old both girls so it might be just because I'm so busy with them I don't think about being pregnant as much since there's not alot of down time.  As it gets closer to my due date I get more and more excited. I'm sure our hormones have slot to do with it.

And it might be because i was really hoping for a girl and it turned out to be another boy. Im still going to love him like crazy but i think i would have been a little more excited if it was a girl.

I feel the,same,way and feel horrible about it, this is my second, my first just turned  1 and I just don't feel excited or even happy to be pregnant again so soon, I'm still kind of in awe about the whole thing

I totally understand! With my first I took baby bump pictures every week and I was so excited. This time I haven't taken any bump pictures. I mean I am happy and I love her but it's not as exciting because I have already done it I guess.
