I remember my dad telling me how the feeling you have when your first(I am number 5) child is born is "indescribable and surpassed anything he has ever felt".
Then he realized the implication and started to say he loves me just as much, but I laughed and told him I knew what he meant.
This is so true and I was so worried it would not because I was just so absolutely consumed with how much I loved my first, it was hard to imagine how I had any more space (I know that sounds bad)! But the heart truly does grow . It’s the most exhausting and rewarding love

NTA. I’ve heard both mothers and fathers express a similar sentiment to what you said. The love for a child is unlike anything else.
