Everyday I wished I was no longer here cause I’m such a horrible person I have a 3 month old son and I still don’t have this rush of love for him I just find him annoying most of the time if I’m honest. I vocally say to my other half that I regret having him but I mainly regret having him because I fee bad that he has such a horrible mum and I wished he had a better mum one that wants to talk to him and loves him. I don’t want to talk to him I just want to feed him change him and him to sleep I don’t want to have to hold him and entertain him all the time. I spoke to a councellor but not helped I wished someone could just make me love him.

Hi Samsvs
Welcome! I’m sorry you’re struggling with bonding. You’re not a horrid person at all - this is a common symptom of post natal illness and for a multitude of reasons can affect a woman. It might be hormones, exhaustion, traumatic birth
You mentioned you saw a counsellor - do you mind telling me how that went? There’s a lot of techniques that can help with bonding. I would really urge you to see gp - they will ha e seen this before many times and can help you - it is common. Do you have any other symptoms as well?
Parenthood is a huge huge change though it’s not widely spoken about. Newborns for me were quite boring - they ate, slept and poohed and doing that 24/7 without any outside stimulation like maybe before baby’s arrival was dull!
Please keep talking as we really understand . You’re not alone and won’t always feel like this x
