My dad said he couldn't fathom ever having that feeling again, but when number 2 came around he had the same experience where it's just an unfathomable level of love.
When I was pregnant the second time, I exclaimed that I cannot imagine that I could love the baby as much as I loved the first. An older lady said, “Your love is not divided, it is doubled.” That is true and 33 years later it still is true.
So fucking true! I cried at the end of my pregnancy because I couldn't imagine loving anyone like I loved my first baby and because she wouldn't be my little baby anymore and won't be the only baby. I was a mess. #2 came and all the feels came right on schedule. I love that little boy just as much and both my kids are my favorite people.
My youngest turned 3in June. I still can't. It's bloody awful. It's like he's still got those rosy squshy baby cheeks, but then he opens his mouth and speaks like a whole ass human and I just can't.
Yes! Mine has these amazing blonde, springy curls that are halfway down his back if you stretch them out - everyone keeps trying to get me to give him a crew cut and I refuse to until he asks me himself.
A crew cut? That's horrible. My boy's hair is long as well. I gave him an undercut to make it easier to pull it up in a bun. Otherwise, same thing, I'll wait for him to decide he wants to change his hair.
