Attachment Disorder
Posted on February 25, 2008
Often times I tell people my daughters have ‘Mommy Attachment Disorder.’ The other day my husband and I were asked how often we get away for “couple time.” Dave looked at me with ‘the look’ he often gives me when people ask questions like this. Okay, so mommy has ‘Kaley and Ashley Attachment Disorder.’ When my husband is home all I want to do is spend time together as a family. Is this such a bad thing?
Dave and I really do need some time alone so that our relationship remains healthy, because without us loving and appreciating each other there really is no family. At the same time, I enjoy each and every minute with my girls that I have a hard time wanting to do something without them.
I’m getting ready to go out of town for 3 days/nights without my girls or Dave and I’m stressed and freaked out about it. I wonder, am I like this because becoming a mom was full of challenges with infertility and prematurity? Do I appreciate the little things more or are all moms like this?
