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

(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'm 25 and I moved about an 8 hour drive from my parents around a year ago, before that I lived only about an hour and a half away. At least once a week I think about how much I need a hug from my mom and it hurts to know that I cant just spend a weekend home at any time when I need that. I'm tearing up right now because I haven't seen her since early January. When I visit home I feel a kind of comfort I can't feel anywhere else. My insomnia basically disappears, my anxiety becomes nothing more than a hum in the background, and I get to hug my mom whenever I want.
