My husband and i had a baby girl 3 weeks ago, she is perfect, sleeps well, avery happy baby. Since she has arrived though i feel like my husband and i have grown apart, we don't seem to talk anymore. I thought becoming parents would have brought us closer together but sometimes i feel like we are strangers. He absolutely adores our little girl which i love to see but what about me - what am i, chopped liver!!!! I just feel like i have done my job and given him a child and now i'm old news. He treats me like i'm one of his buddies, not his wife, i need love and caring too!! Is this normal to feel this way??

Well i am a single mom, so i can only offer my opinion not experience but im thinking that the reason he is this way is maybe he is trying to give you space to 'heal' ? Why dont you get a family member to sit overnight, at their house (if possible) and have a romantic night, so that way he knows that you are ready to get back on the wagon (no pun intended LOL)....

I think its normal to feel a little neglected when baby first arrives and if you both are new parents, it takes awhile to get used to your new roles and you both may be so focused on your new baby girl that the romance department is on the back burner. I am sure that once you both get into a groove, you can give eachother the attention needed (and well deserved) and get back on track. Just make sure you both keep open communication and talk about it so you are both on the same track.

I'm in the same boat as you are. I had my little girl 5 months ago and my husband still has not touched me! I feel so unloved and unattractive. So, I have no advice for you except that you're not alone.

It is normal to feel this way even if he is giving you all the attention in the world. Don't worry things will work out.
