Seconds after he was born I was totally in love and somehow instinct kicks in. BTW I still feel awkward and resist holding other peoples babies though.

I don't think that has any bearing on what kind of mother you'll be! In fact, the awkwardness might even mean that you're a mindful and cautious Mom, which could be a great thing!<br /><br />Thank you for your comment! I love your blog and am now your newest follower.

But the moment he held her own child that all changed. She is a wonderful mother as I am sure that you will be also. Hope that it happens for you soon!<br /><br />Jess<br />~ICLWJesshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16346777903276344723noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8347464733373565708.post-40443096473526964452010-07-22T02:34:27.836+12:002010-07-22T02:34:27.836+12:00From ICLW.

I was in my late twenties and never really thought much about kids. Until I married a man I knew would be a good Dad and finally went for it. Turned out that I was the mother bear of Moms once I had a child who needed me. Even my Mom was surprised. She figured I was gonna be the "career woman"- like you couldn't be both!! You'll see. You'll be a great Mom!!Carolehttp://www.fertilitylabinsider.comnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8347464733373565708.post-33412981447283933322010-07-22T02:11:03.860+12:002010-07-22T02:11:03.860+12:00Have no fear.

Pre-kids it was give me a cat or a dog anyday. I now have 3 children and I love them to bits (when they aren't bugging me lol) Just kidding. I am not going to be the woman on the treasures ad or those breastfeeding ads where they are gazing at each other. I still aren't overly fond of other peoples kids but when it comes to my own my motherly instincts kick in and I will protect them to the end. I will provide as much as I can for them and ensure they know that I love them even if I don't say it all the time. <br /><br />My three have survived and are pretty good for it so yes it does come naturally. Like everything it is a learning curve but all of a sudden one day you look back and think aaahhh now I know what they meant. Good luck on your journey.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8347464733373565708.post-1986903359397578362010-07-21T21:17:57.897+12:002010-07-21T21:17:57.897+12:00hay haidee you are more then welcome to have ashle...hay haidee you are more then welcome to have ashleigh for the night..no wait the weekend hehehehe it will come naturally thou and you have soo many people out there that will love to help you when u need it :) i believe that you and hayden will make wonderful parents xxAnonymousnoreply@blogger.com
