TAMAR BRAXTON ON GMA STATES " I DID NOT IMMEDIATELY FALL IN LOVE WITH MY SON

Reality TV star and singer Tamar Braxton has always been outspoken about her struggles during pregnancy, and she’s being just as candid after giving birth to her son, Logan.

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.
She revealed that she didn’t immediately fall in love with Logan, who is now 2 months old.
“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?”

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?’”

 Braxton, 36, didn’t feel depressed, but she said she felt disappointed. She explained her emotions when she was first handed her son after his birth. “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.”

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.

“Well you know, I was questioning my motherhood. … 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.

Mental health experts like psychologist Stacy Kaiser say Braxton’s experience is common.

“The research says that 20 to 30 percent of moms feel this way.  And I actually think it’s higher. It’s just that most moms are too embarrassed to admit it,” Kaiser told “GMA.”

Braxton said that once her son started to breast-feed, she finally felt a connection to him.
“When he finally latched on I felt like he got me and I got him and this was all meant to be,” she said.

Braxton is now busier than ever. She’s working on her upcoming album, starring in a new WE tv reality show, “Tamar & Vince,” and hosting a new talk show, but she says being a mother is her number one priority.

“I am very happy. I feel complete … he is the best thing that ever happened to me,” she said, speaking of her son.

TAMAR BRAXTON REVEALS SON NAME...? & FIRST PIC

Leave it too she...aka Tamar to come up with a cute name for her son.  "She did that"!

Happy Father’s Day to the love of my life, my best friend, my husband Vincent Herbert! Our son Logan Vincent Herbert & I are proud to share this day with you!! We love you soooooo much!!” Braxton posted on Instagram Sunday evening.

 Tamar Braxton is a new mom to a baby boy — but that’s all the information she’s sharing for now. 
The singer, 36, and husband Vince Herbert first announced their pregnancy in March, when she was already seven months along. Why the wait?

“Vince and I [were] told we were going to have fertility problems — it was a lot of information — so we had to get comfortable with the fact that it happened on its own,” Braxton told PEOPLE at the time. “We decided [not to announce] until we were both really okay with it — that’s why we waited.”

The Tamar & Vince stars knew the sex of their baby on the way, but chose to keep that private as well.

“You’ll find out at the end of the summer,” she teased.
