Normal to sob with love when I think about my baby?

[ArranMumma]

Whenever I think about my baby too much I just become so overwhelmed with love that I start sobbing. Is this ridiculous? I don’t want to be some weird obsessive mum!! Please tell me straight.

If it is normal then.. does the feeling ever go away? Honestly it’s exhausting. I saw two little boys walking home from school and burst into tears too imagining him when he’s old enough to go to school! It’s ridiculous!

How old is he?
Yes normal - and yes your hormones do calm down although I can't look at my son's baby clothes without crying...

Yes it’s totally normal! Hormones 😄

My oldest is 10 today and I shed a tear last night when I thought back on the minute he was born and how he felt when they placed him on my chest.

It goes away, I promise. Otherwise we’d never be able to get anything done!

@lalalapurple he’s not born! I am 33 weeks pregnant x

@Strokethefurrywall awww! You’re going to set me off!!

I think that depends entirely on how old your baby is... The closer to newborn, the more normal. Everyone sobs about something in the first few days. The closer to first birthday, I would say the sobbing should be waning by then!

It wouldn't be normal for me but I imagine for others it would be! As long as its not negatively affecting your moods then I wouldn't worry at all. Pregnancy hormones are probably contributing too.

Hehe this is sweet! I'm 33 weeks too and feel the same!!

I had that right after he was born.
I would just watch him sleeping and cry because the amount of love I felt for him was so overwhelming. Your hormones make you do stuff like that.
