DP and I have two kids together. When we met I had no kids but he already had two from a previous relationship and two step that he raised since they were a baby and toddler.
Pretty much since I was pregnant with my first born would get waves of I suppose sadness more than anything when it came to scans etc that it was a first for me and not him. Everything that we've done he's already done before with someone else. That feeling has never really gone away from driving babies and I home from hospital, first birthdays, first holidays, first day at school, and everything in between. We're currently looking to buy, I'll be a first time buyer but he bought a house before with his ex.
I know it's silly but I always imagined my life meeting someone and all our big "first's" in life being together. I wish I didn't feel like this but I just cannot seem to ever shake it.
Surely I'm not the only person to get these feelings. Can anyone relate?
