Gwyneth Paltrow says that she had no particular feelings towards her son Moses, when he was born.

Paltrow has 2 children- five years-old Apple and four years-old Moses, with her husband Chris Martin.

She says that she could not attach herself to her son after his birth. She kept her fears hidden till it came forth after her husband confronted her with the problem.

"At my lowest, I was a robot. I just didn't feel anything. I had no maternal feelings for him - it was awful. I had no thoughts of harming him, thank God, but I couldn't connect, and still, when I look at pictures of him at three months old, I don't remember that time," says the actress.

"My problem was that I never acknowledged anything was wrong. I just carried on as normal, and I just felt crazy. It was Chris, actually, who said out loud that something was wrong. And that was such a relief when he did because it was confirmation that it wasn't just me," she adds.
