Just feeling nothing

I just feel like something is missing.
I have everything I want and need in life, we have a house, a debt free life. I have a fantastic husband and marriage and a beautiful 3 month old boy. We are fortunate enough to afford little holidays and breaks yet I still feel nothing...

Years ago I was the life and soul, always laughing and enjoying life. Even the smallest things would bring me happiness. I miss that exciting feeling I used to get in my chest.
My spark started to fade when I gained a lot of weight during the last few years due to medication but it never made me feel insecure and I wasn't unhappy about my appearance just my health. I got pregnant and made it my goal to be healthier during pregnancy.

Skip forward I've had my beautiful baby and have taken to motherhood like a duck to water. The LO is very easy so exhaustion thankfully hasn't been an issue for me and I just love the feeling of being a mum so I know it's not postnatal depression.

I have already lost 30lb and moving ever closer to my goal yet the down feelings are starting to come back.

I have questioned myself as to "what is missing" but I cannot think of anything yet something has changed. I miss the old me.
