I hate to admit this but last night I really didn't like my baby. We were having a bad night with breastfeeding and he was miserable. It seemed he was fighting everything he normally knows how to do. I was in pain, exhausted and we were both incredibly frustrated and to be totally honest I didn't really like him very much last night. Don't get me wrong I still loved him but I didn't like him. Have you every disliked your baby? What got you to that point?

Whether or not anyone will admit it, every mother has moments where they get frustrated and feel like you did. It's ok. It does happen. As long as you don't act on it, it's harmless.

Completely agree with @BabyBoecksMom.
DD cried pretty much constantly for the first 3 1/2 months unless she was sleeping... I had LOTS of "I don't like my baby" moments, most of which ended in me crying with her.
-
Yep. C was a very screamy baby prone to hysterical fits of biblical proportions. I had many such moments.
-
I've gotten super frustrated and annoyed with her. She annoyed me this morning actually!
-
Absolutely!!! I feel like this is something that no one ever talks about, but newborns are WORK! Well, so is a two year old, but different work and she makes me laugh more than she did when she was a newborn. You are not alone, at all. Every mom I have ever talked to has had moments like this.

A few days ago, LO was extraordinarily fussy. She wasn't my fave person then
-
From weeks 7-9 my LO was the fussiest baby ever and I was offering him to the highest bidder! And when he would have a bad night we would tell him that we loved him very much but didn't like him for sleeping so poorly.
I am sure these thoughts go thru every parent's mind!

During the first two weeks, hubs and I both disliked our little bug one day. We both were at our wits end! But luckily that passed
-
Oh yeah, I get irritated when she fights diaper changes!
-
Yup, LO was a horrible sleeper as a baby. I dreaded putting him to sleep every night. That was why we headed up sleep training eventually - for everyone's sanity.
-
She was being pretty annoying today... I definitely wasn't her biggest fan
I think it's normal to get annoyed/frustrated - we're only human, after all!
-
I've been feeling like that this evening! I really think I need more breaks from him.
-
Yup, I am sure it happens to everyone once in a while.
