The ‘maternal instinct’: most moms are taught they’ll naturally have it - they’ll just magically know how to parent when the time comes.  So why does a tiny, helpless baby often seem so daunting? Truth is, research shows that what we call ‘maternal instinct’ is really more of a process—the evolution of a natural response in parents, as they become increasingly attuned to their baby’s instinctual cues. If your baby has arrived and you're still struggling to feel a bond, don't panic - try talking to a therapist about how you're feeling and rest assured that it will come in time. You've got this! #maternalmentalhealth #maternalinstinct #formoms
