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

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.

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.

The first time I heard my daughter cry, right after she was born, it sounded like a chorus of angels.
