Bit emotional today.....

[Jendon]

This sounds really stupid but my son is now 11 days old (ignore my ticker!!) and the midwife discharged me from her care today. For some reason I feel really sad about this - I feel like it's all finished and done. I know this is a stupid way to feel as I have my new son to enjoy - I guess Im just sad that the pregnancy and birth stage has finished. Has anyone else felt like this?? Also I think that because this is my second child I am quite sad cos I dont think we are going to have any more so this could be the last time I get to have a new baby!! Hormone level must be high today!!

jack is just my first but i felt like this... almost chucked myself on ground and grabbed onto midwifes ankles to stop he from leaving me lol. It just felt wierd, like all that build up and bam i was on my own doing it, plus it's exciting isn't it, all the appointments and stuff during pregnancy, i miss it and that partly why i felt sad

I felt a bit like that tool, It felt all so final.

Ooo Me... I felt like that!!! You eventually get over it though.. .think about it.. you've been pregnant for nearly a year, and now its done... that's pretty final... Change is difficult to accept no matter what it entails.. but when your little ones starts smiling and laughing.. discovering his hands (OH thats so funny ), you'll really enjoy looking forward
