In an exclusive interview with Good Morning America<\/em>, Singer Tamar Braxton opens up about her post-baby struggles:<\/p>\n

In an exclusive interview with “Good Morning America” correspondent Abbie Boudreau, Braxton, who stars in the WE tv reality show “Braxton Family Values,” talked about her post-baby issues.<\/p>\n

She revealed that she didn’t immediately fall in love with Logan, who is now 2 months old.<\/p>\n

“I loved him, you know,” she said. “But I wasn’t like ‘oh, gosh, yes my baby, ooh,’ you know. It wasn’t that. It was more like what do I do now, you know?”<\/p>\n

Asked whether she ever felt completely unattached to the baby, the “Love and War” singer told Boudreau: “I guess in a sense I did feel unattached because you know, I really, really wanted to connect with him because I wanted to breast-feed. And when he didn’t latch on and when I couldn’t produce milk I just felt like, ‘Is this the wrong child?’ You know what I mean? ‘Am I the wrong mother?'”<\/p>\n

Braxton, 36, didn’t feel depressed, but she said she felt disappointed.<\/p>\n

She explained her emotions when she was first handed her son after his birth.<\/p>\n

“You’re in shock,” she said. “And you know, it took me a few days to really, like, come to terms with the fact that I am a mom and this is my baby.”<\/p>\n

Uncomfortable in her new role as a mother, Braxton said she didn’t change her son’s diaper for the first week and a half after his birth. Her hands-on husband, Vince Herbert, took on the diaper duty.<\/p>\n

“Well you know, I was questioning my motherhood. \u2026 Like, is this a mistake that God made? Or like, is this something that I need to hand over to my husband because he and the baby connected instantly. And I wanted that. And I guess I was a little jealous, pretty much. Am I being really honest here? I guess I am,” she said.<\/p>\n

Mental health experts like psychologist Stacy Kaiser say Braxton’s experience is common.(READ MORE)<\/a><\/p>\n
