Does anyone else feels this overwhelming love for their baby? Is it normal?
I don't know if this sounds weird, but sometimes the love I feel for my daughter is so intense that it almost overwhelms me.
I'll just be looking at her playing or sleeping, and suddenly I'm filled with so much love that I want to cry. I miss her when she's asleep, worry about her all the time, and can't stop thinking about her.
I never knew it was possible to love someone this much. Some days it feels beautiful, and other days it feels almost overwhelming because my whole world revolves around her.
Please tell me I'm not the only one who feels this way. Is this just a normal parent thing?
Also, for those of you with older kids, how did you mentally prepare yourself for sending your baby to school? With all the news stories about children these days, I already find myself anxious thinking about it, and my daughter is still so little. How do you cope with those fears and still let them grow and be independent?
