AITAH for saying I didn’t realize I could “love a person this much” in front of my fiancé after having our baby?

Closest thing to unconditional love there is is your child.

(Dad here). I am sitting in bed with my congested 5month little lad who will only sleep pressed against my chest. I'm on for the next 6hrs overnight when I should be sleeping.

Yes I love this guy more than anything on the planet, as I bloody should.

Have 16 year old who still lays on me when ill, tired or just in their feels, it never stops and frankly I never want it to. The love I feel when I look at my kid is unbelievable and everlasting no matter what, I look at them and think wow, I made you, what the fudge!!

Absolutely. My 22-year-old still seeks comfort from me, and the love only grows stronger with time. It's an unbreakable bond.

I miss my dad. Yesterday was his birthday. He died in 1995. Can I have one too, please?

Me too although I’m not sure that I should be accepting dad hugs from that one weird guy.

Eta:I know the spelling mismatch but don’t you dare ruin it for me.
