Are these normal feelings towards my baby?

[isthisn0rmal]

I feel like I'm being weird, but the past couple of days I've had these strong feelings towards my baby. Obviously Ive loved him to bits since I first saw him, he's the light of my life but I'm having these feelings that seem silly but I don't know if they are? They've come out of nowhere!

He's 9 months old almost. I've been back at work for 3 months and I was ok with leaving him with my DM/MIL initially every morning, but I've not wanted to leave him at all the past few days. Its been really hard for me to walk away and go to work

I also miss him terribly when he's sleeping!

Am I just being pathetic?

Nope my lo is 23 months and I love cuddling him even when he's sleeping.
I think you go through ups and downs.
October was ok to leave but December I felt horrible everyday and even worse when I collected him because I felt like I missed so much

@Graciebutterfly Yes! I was struggling to get through the day today at work because I just wanted to go and pick him up

No not weird. My DS is three and I miss him right now even though he’s only asleep in the next room. I’m secretly hoping he’ll come into bed for a cuddle at some point tonight.

@ConnorRipley Aww, I wish my little boy was old enough to come in for a cuddle

Course you’re not pathetic! You love your son to bits, he’s a lucky baby.

I miss mine all the time and I’m hardly ever away from her

I just try my best to focus on work. It's hard because you love them so much. And then you get the days where you wish for a little freedom

Thanks everyone, I didn't know if I was being silly

I was literally obsessed with both of my DCs when they were babies. One of my friends described it as like a really intense teenage crush where you think about them all the time and pine after them.

You just love your baby. He’s a lucky boy. Do Try to enjoy the time by yourself though - it’s good for you.
