Thank you so much for sharing. I have 1 week old B/G twins and im struggling so much. I loved my pregnancy and couldn't wait to meet them, but now that they're here, I'm having a hard time connecting with them, even though I care for them very much. Such a weird place to be in, and a feeling I wouldn't wish on my worst enemy...
You're welcome, and thank you for sharing too. It can 100% feel so overwhelming and challenging, especially the first few months (in my experience) but it will all change! Trust me, many many many mums feel this way, and not just twin mums, mums of singles too... but a lot of people choose to keep those feelings to themselves. For me, it changed when they started to socially smile... suddenly they felt like little humans and not robots anymore 🙈😅. Hoping you start to feel better soon and just go easy on yourself. You've been through a lot, mentally, physically and emotionally🫶🏽♥️ P.s Happy New Year!🎉
You described exactly how I felt when I had little man. I felt lonely, lost and although I loved him I felt like I had lost my identity as Becci and just become Mummy. Xx
Yeah, it's just such a huge adjustment isn't it. I had this expectation that it would be like in the films/what people show on social media, so it was a shock to the system when I didn't experience that! I totally get it xx
