How many of you had a tough time connecting with your newborn?
I wouldn't say a 'tough' time but it felt difficult to be really attached to my newborn.

Add those crazy hormones on top. Where was the time to feel connected? Plus, it's such a life-changing event! One is never prepared enough! I also missed my old life -- going out at the drop of a hat, staying awake till late, getting up late. It took some months to get adjusted to have another being so dependent on you. As a side note, I think part of it comes from the society and media as well. We have been fed to think that we should be overtly doting mothers.
