I gave a birth to my second child two weeks ago. It was very difficult and painful labor. I sill haven’t got recovered and feel terrible. I’m lucky that my mom and sister are here to help. I just can’t stand my child that doesn’t stop crying. Is there help for this? Is that normal? I feel totally different than felt with my first baby.
I think that it is due to your hormonal imbalance. And also to the fact that your baby caused you so much physical pain and difficulties. I felt just the same and was terrified because of that. It took time for me to start being interested in my baby. I think that there is medical term for this postpartum depression; actually it is normal and common condition.
It could be post-partum depression, but was this child planned/wanted? I only ask because I would venture to say it's very possible to feel like you don't want to be around your child when you didn't really want it in the first place. I'm not saying that's your case, though.
In any case, I would say this is normal. If you still feel this in four years' time, maybe it's not actually PPD - maybe you just really can't stand your child.
