My daughter is 10 months old and she just seems to hate me.
She's always been a very very difficult baby, crying constantly, high needs and hard to please. I thought it was getting better, in fact it did around a month ago but then it started going downhill again.
She spends her crying and doing outbursts of high pitches squealing which has been going on for months. The high pitched squealing has no rhyme or reason behind it as she's not upset or anything.
She hits me, scratches me, pinches me and hates being cuddled up to me she just pushes me away, eve when she's upset she can't wait to get away from me. She can't be left for a single moment even when I'm in sight and talking to her.
I'm sat here sobbing my eyes out cause it's almost like I'm grieving the baby I was meant to have. She's my first daughter and I was so excited I can't even explain when I was pregnant and especially when I found out she was a girl as I've already got a son.
Now it's 10 months down the line and it just feels like I've been going through hell the past 7 months with her. I can't get a break as I've got no friends or family and she sees her dad once every two weeks and she's an angel for him apparently. I feel like the worst mum in the whole world and like this behaviour must be my fault and she clearly deserves a better mum. I had my son at 17 and he was a little darling and such a wonderful baby that this is all just too much for me to handle.
I keep hoping it'll change and she'll change but it never happens. Sometimes I feel as though I could just walk about and she'd not even care.
