There is this thing called Postpartum Depression. This happens with alot of lady's, after they have their baby. They just don't feel connected to their baby, and they feel depressed and stuff. What you need to do, is talk to your dr. about this. They will give you some medicine, and may even suggest therapy...it just depends.
But if this isn't the case...and you really don't want her..I have always wanted to adopt.(so you could send her my way!..lol) I have two daughters already, and would love to adopt now. But...I doubt this is the case... I think it is just the postpartum depression coming into play. So, please do talk to your dr.
Good luck, and please love your baby! :o)

You are suffering from Postpartum Depression. Happens to most of us after the delivery.Hormonal changes, inadequate rest and caring for the newborn becomes a bit too much at times and most mothers experience the "baby blues" within the first week after delivery. Normally it disappears within a couple of week or so.

These are some of the other symptoms you may be experiencing too:



* Fatigue, exhaustion
* Feeling overwhelmed or unable to cope
* Frightening feelings or thoughts that won't go away
* Hatred of partner or self
* Appetite changes
* Over concern or no feelings for the baby
* Thoughts of harming the baby or yourself
* Anger, irritability or feeling "out of control"
* Exaggerated highs and/or lows
* Difficulty sleeping
* Wanting life back "the way it used to be

A sure fire way to get rest (my own golden rule) If the baby falls asleep DROP Everything and go to sleep yourself.Mainly, its all due to sleep deprevation. Some other suggestions to recover:

* Reaching out for help from your doctor
* Connecting with other moms so you're not alone
* Getting help with meals and housework
* Exercising
* Taking a break from the baby (i.e., go shopping or to lunch with a friend)

Get professional help, now, ASAP. While everyone gets a little frustrated with a baby, hate is a seriously strong word. Find someone to help you with the baby, too. Your Mom, her Mom, a neighbor you trust, the Dad or his family, a friend. There are support groups out there, too. Why do you hate her? Are you depressed? Is she a major disruption in your life? Don't feel bad, babies do that. Just get some help with physical care of the baby, and get you some help.

You need to calm down...

Take a few deep breaths.

Leave the room if you can..

If the baby is crying it will be ok for a few minutes.

Go get a drink OF WATER, TEA, COFFEE, SODA. Now I want tyou to talk to your doctor first thing, I mean as soon as possible.

Maybe you are hating yourself right now but can you find anything positive to think about? Life is a struggle and it can be hard to give up your own needs when you have such a responsibility. I think you need a break right now and that means finding a responsible person to take over for you. I truely hope that you can find that person to help.

Lots of people get post-partum depression. Talk to a professional and to your family so they can help you take care of her. It will pass.

PS Don't let some of these other answers make you think you are a bad person. It is a real problem!! You need to get help.

Get professional help immediately. If you feel like you are going to hurt the baby, leave her with someone you trust until you get yourself straightened out.

Get out for a while and leave your baby with someone you trust. Then, as soon as you can, go back to the Dr. He might can prescribe you something.
