How can I bond with my new baby? We have had a rough start, I was hospitalised when he was 7 days old with a nasty womb infection and even nastier bout of blood posioning and was away from him for 7 days and nights (I was that poorly I couldn't do anything so it was decided he would stay at home with my hubby)
Since being home I've really struggled to bond with him, was still quite ill when I left hospital so once again hubby stepped up and my parents and family helped out! I'm sure it's me as he's a really good little boy, he was on a 4 hourly routine for feeds etc and now nearly sleeps from 10-5 most nights, but I look at him and don't feel the like I have any bond with him not like I did with my 2 year old at this point
What am I doing wrong?? Am I a hideous parent? It's getting me down :(
