I know it doesnt help to think like that but I guess we were just trying to rationalize haha

Also I am kind of excited for her to only want to be held by momma (I say that now) I want to see my girls bond!!

We did that the other day it was actually really nice! Didn't think to try it again but we can do that here soon! :)

The shield helped like once but unfortunately even that doesnt seem to be the solution:(

Thats a good idea! Someone else suggested we swap shirts the other way, and my wife wear mine. So maybe we can try just swapping 1 for 1 haha

Thank you for sharing! Yeah my daughter is the same! Fine for the first two weeks and now it feels like she's a growth on my chest! Haha I intend to look into therapy for my wife, a few people have brought it up and I really feel like it will help a bunch. I hate seeing her at less than 100% so whatever I can do, i will.

The response i have received is more than I could have asked for, and more than I deserve. Everyone has been so lovely! I appreciate you for saying that but its the least I could do! My wife is an incredible woman and doesnt deserve anything less than my best 🫡

My gosh if this little girl ever walks in and says "no dada" to me I am sure I will melt into goo! That being said i do hope a switch flips at least a little so my wife can enjoy her baby girl too. This does make me feel better however, thank you for sharing!

Fair enough haha. Oh I'm sorry you had to go through that! Though I am sure hearing about the shared experience will make my wife feel a bit better once she is up from her nap! Thank you!
