YES you will probably feel like this for about 3 months. Alot of ladies go through it after they have had a baby, I felt like that with both of mine.

Do you find yourself crying for no reason sometimes? I was terrible after my 2nd. I got really paranoid that my husband was going to leave me (even though he would never in a million years) and I just found I couldn't control my emotions. It does where off.

Firstly what a fantastic routine 8-4am brilliant.. :-) yes I think most new mums will feel the same, the bump bond has gone and now we share a baby bond with. Our husbands. Completely natural too feel that way.. Wonder what you hubby/partner would say... I know what mine would say.... He'll no ha ha xx

Im 36+5 weeks so havent had my wee one yet but my best friend had her baby last week, its her third boy and she has constantly said since having him that she wants another one yet all through her pregnancy this was her last baby.. so its normal to feel this way sometimes.. when i had my little girl i felt down and empty, even tho we spend the whole time looking forward to meeting our babies i think we are left with the empty feeling of where they used to be :( i deff missed being pregnant.. i also discussed my feelings with my midwife which helped :) hope you start to feel better soon xxx
