I remember mine, I had my first child at the age of 18 and it was very painful and terrifying. Befoe she was born I didn't think about her as a person, just a pain in my life that I had to live through. Even after she was born she was just a small ugly thing and I felt no connection with her. Then that first night I had a dream about her and I fell so in love with her that I couldn't bear not to keep her close at all times. To this day I remember that love and the feelings. Now she is grown with grandchildren of her own but she is always very special to me.

It's hard to accept change sometimes. I know it took me time to accept change but once I did. I felt a great relief after she was born. I had a very complicated pregancny. i was gestational diabetic, i had hyporparathyroid disease before I was pregnat which that in itself put me at high risk. I was rh negative and they were concerned that the baby was going to be to big. I went in and they had to use two sets of forceps to get her out and it was because when they realized she was too big it was too late her head was almost out. It was a well deserved break. I understand that many parents feel a different variety of emotions. But mine was different for me. I wasn't married and because of the OBGYN I had to go back 4 months of guys that I was seeing. They've done 4 dna tests and still haven't found the right onw. The one I think it is I don't have information on to trn his name in for dna testing. Anyhow, She's my greatest love and she knows she is loved and that's all that matters

I Hope you have a support team, raising a child is difficult at best. But you have your wonderful child and love is a very powerful force, in fact it's the most powerful one we humans can experience. Blessings

The weirdest relationship I have, which is quite different than yours, and I don't even know if it counts - (but hey, this an open ended discussion after all, I guess). I have a really bad love-hate relationship with my ex and friend (it's a confusing mess, really). I love the guy and hate him at the same time. He's dangerous for me to be around, just because my emotions are so totally conflicted. It's just a bad situation. But I love him and probably will forever, in between hating him all the while.

People's personalities have many sides it's not unusual that you could be attracted to one side of him and repelled by another. What is good is that you understand what is best for you.

I believe that a mothers' love for her children is one of the strongest and most sincere loves that anyone can have. A mother would go to the ends of the earth for her children and I believe that most mothers would always do what was best for the child even if it means that it is against the child.

Hi friend,I agree that the strongest love and the right for such love naturally comes to us only with our children.We can never hate our children in life but we can hate other relations other than our children.Even if we hate them for their mistakes or some wrong done by them the love for them remains the same.We struggle and suffer when they are in trouble.I felt my strongest love when my only daughter was not well and suffering very much.I even thought that god can take my life and give my child a hale and healthy life.Thanks for sharing and happy mylotting.

I would have to agree with you that the strongest love is that between mother and child. You cannot get much closer than to a little person you carried inside your body for nine months! I only have one child so the experience for me has been unique. I have never been a particularly maternal person, yet with my daughter I feel that we are still connected by some invisible cord that will never be severed; her pain is my pain and her joy is mine also. There are others I love in my life but the bond my child and I share is like no other.

My first and strongest love i ever felt before was when i had a baby. My first born child.. cant explain the feelings and then followed by another two babies. I really loved them and no one can replaced my love for them until now that they are grown up already. Then it was followed now by my true ever love. Above all is God.

Wow...this reminds me of my mom...i just wonder what she must have felt after looking at me. I dont remember any such thing. But yes...i used to work late hours at office...But one day i came home early and she came out of the kitchen and she was so happy to see me and she hugged me and took me in her arms. I still remember this incident as the best in my life.
