yeah, had that happen too.

Wow! I never knew that had happened to anyone else but me. It was
mostly in the first few weeks and was extremely disorienting. I
actually had the physical sensation of DD being in my arms, but she
wasn't there when I looked. I think sleep deprivation had something to
do with it. That and giving in to the convention of putting baby to
sleep in a bassinet against my instincts. Is that the feeling you're
talking about?
