I'm 22 weeks and this is my first pregnancy, but I do have a 3.5 year old as well. I've never been a clingy person, fiercely independent has been used to describe me practically since birth and for sure since I could crawl. My mom and I have had a very up and down relationship over the years, but I think still fairly normal bordering on close. My husband and I have always been like two peas in a pod, but maintained fairly independent lives that got more intertwined once we had our 3.5 year old. We both had busy careers and he traveled a lot for work, then kiddo 1 came along and i strted styaing home and he requested more local jobs and a more chill schedule. All of a sudden though I hate being alone. I text my husband and mom at least 10 times a day. I'm always asking my mom to come do things with me, even if it's just running to target together. She's in the process of moving to our city, and it's like a 3 hour move so she's so busy, but if I go more than 3 days without seeing her I'm calling her for hour plus long calls. My husband's work days seem endlessly long. I want family time nonstop. I'm even starting to warm more towards my step father who I've had an awkward, arm's length relationship with since him and my mom got together almost 8 years ago. Hell, I've started calling him my step father instead of my mom's husband. Idk, it's just like this deep part of me feels a sense of longing for the people I care about and it cannot be filled. It's so foreign to me.
