Improving, what you wrote is EXACTLY how it is for me!!!!!

My T agrees that my parents loved me but says my Mom and I didn't mesh right. She puts out her hands and shows how they miss each other. Or it was being in the incubator because I was a preemie.

I know I didn't get loved in the right way, I guess. Or else why would I feel so good, filled up, when T holds my hand? I'm loved and happy in the session with her!

Do you think, like me, it's that your Mom and you didn't fit right even though she loved you? Mine was over-protective--not good either.
