don't want my newborn? ppd?

Question

I've felt terrible about this for weeks. Now I don't feel anything anymore. I don't want her. I cried over this endlessly but now I can say it without crying. I don't feel anything for her or her dad. I want them gone. I wish I could feel some remorse for my thoughts but I'm not. Could this be ppd? The only way I can see myself being happy again is without them, as odd as that sounds. I feel like a horrible person but I can't change my mind about how I feel. Did anyone experience this? I don't feel sick at all, i don't feel anything really. Btw she was planned. I loved her until I gave birth to her.

Ps I would never hurt her. I've been planning on leaving them. My husband is so disrespectful and leaves it all up to me. Never what we planned as we wanted a child together not just me doing all the work and him carrying her for 5 minutes when he gets home from work.

Answer

Definitely PPD. U MUST talk to ur obgyn about it asap. These feelings, while PPD is very common,  are NOT normal and if not treated asap, u could possibly hurt urself and the baby. Please,  go talk about it with ur obgyn. They have meds for it. 
I took them. .

Answer

Oh sweetie, if you have a friend that you can rely on or anyone that you can open up and talk about it now, just do it! Dont wait until gets worse. It is very hard at the beginning, but  trust all of us on this, it will be amazing after this emotional up and down feeling leave. After my husband returned to work all I did was crying, I didn't understand why I was not happy. I did know about ppd before I had my child, so I did realize that those feelings were temporary and now I love him more that I love me! Your baby needs you...

Answer

Definitely PPD! Call your doctor asap and tell them what's going on. PPD can range in severity and it only gets worse until it gets treated. I'm currently on zoloft for mine. You just have to remember this isn't who you are. PPD is a mental illness but it's easily treated. It took about 2 weeks on zoloft to feel like myself again.

Answer

Yes it sounds like it could be ppd.  Talk to your dr for sure! They can help. Good luck to you.

Answer

Sounds like ppd, please go see someone ASAP.

Answer

Please go talk to a professional. Seriously go talk to someone. If you leave your daughter that will be the biggest regret of your life. I understand that babies are difficult and sometimes you feel like you are alone but you are not. Seriously talk to someone please and really think about what you are considering. Do you really want to be the mom that ran out on her child?

Answer

Please see your doctor before doing anything drastic. Also, maybe marriage counseling, if you've been feeling this way before the baby. Leaving a child and a marriage is a huge thing and you need to make sure this is actually you, and not just PPD talking, which it really sounds like it is.

There is NO shame in it. It happens to a TON of people and can easily be treated with just a little pill. Don't do anything before seeing your doctor.
