    Sounds like the mother might have postpartum depression. I’ve had similar thoughts too, and I also suffer from depression.

    With my first born I was fine, and enjoyed pretty much the whole experience (colic notwithstanding). But with my second born, it took me a while to feel good about having a second child. Turns out that is natural, but it never hurts to talk to someone about it.
