Chill. This says nothing about OP's capacity to take care of her children. We are often given this huge social expectation that our hearts will be bursting with magical sparkly love for our babies, and sometimes that shit doesn't happen right away. It certainly didn't for me. I had to *learn* to love my kid the same way I would have to learn to love any other human being; it didn't happen overnight. And sometimes that love gets buried under any manner of things. For me, it was post-partum depression and an unhealthy relationship with his father. Now it's the strain on my time, emotions and finances. Yeah, I love my kid, but I had to learn to, and I had to learn that love *isn't* always magical and sparkly, but just about enduring (with) someone because you can't imagine the alternative.

I had to learn what love actually was, and I had to learn how to do it and feel it. But in that interim, I still took care of his material/physical needs and his emotional ones, as well. Posting a secret about maybe not loving her child doesn't make the OP a shit parent.
