Tob jealous of an ex becoming a daddy

Might be hormones (just had a baby myself) and craving some excitment or whatever but just been browsing Facebook and found my ex has just become a daddy.

I split up with him years ago and he was a bit of a player but even though I am happily married, I couldn't help feel a pang of jealousy and sadness that its not me...why is this? I was also tempted to get in touch with him and say congrats but thought against it as might freak him out totally and it is a bit stalky isn't it?

I think it is my hormones and been recently diagnosed with mild PND so hopefully this irrational insane feeling will pass, hence me posting this on AIBU

Any comments/ advice appreciated..ta!

I could have written that post about a year ago just after having my scond DC!

Send him a message of congratulations, you'll forget about it all soon, I did Smile

My ex and I split in 1999 and in 2000 he became a dad (long story). I contrulated him and then 10 years later he contratulated me via Facebook. It was nice to hear and felt like like there were no hard feelings after all these years (it was a bitter divorce). I say contratulate him then leave it at that.

Thanks for the advice Pinkie and Framey, I'm not brave enough to send him a message,wish I was but I'm not, plus he dumped me via email whilst he was backpacking around the world so we didn't part amicably..

What am I doing as a married woman getting het up about lost loves?? Hubby is fast asleep downstairs on sofa and DS is asleep in his cot, I'm just bored hence ramblings on here...

PND does strange things to your head - I would've wandered off with the first tallish man some days just to get away! Madness Smile

It's definately hormones! Do nothing, and don't make any vaguely important decisions about anything for a least six months.
