Baby prefers Dad

[LB20]

I don't know if it's tiredness or hormones or paranoia but I feel like my baby prefers my husband over me. She is 15 weeks old and my husband gets all the giggles and smiles, he leaves the room she smiles when he's back. I leave the room or the house and get nothing when I return even if i have been gone for hours. I work so hard to keep her entertained all day and get nothing! I do 95% of her care and just feel she's bored or just doesn't like me as much. Am I being stupid, it's just makes me so upset.

Trust me you’ll take it in turns to be favourite parent lots of times! At the moment if you do 95% of care then she’s probably enjoying the (comparative) novelty of Daddy’s face

I could have written your post OP! My DH gets giggles smiles and excitement, I get more whinging and tears. And I do most of the hard yards too although my DH is helpful.

I agree with PP it is that they are a novelty. Your baby will be bonded to you and consider themselves part of you. You are their whole world. It is you that will bring the most comfort. I honestly do know how you feel but I promise your baby loves you xxx

Hi thank you for replying I really appreciate it, its made me feel better. I know she loves me, I think I'm just tired and emotional and taking things to heart that I don't need to.
