It sounds like post-partum depression.You should make an appointment with your doctor ASAP.

 i have to say i agree with ur sister, ur probably going through post partum depression. its very normal in women who have just had a baby. its a big change for u. i went through it with my second child. my advice, call ur doctor asap. if post partum depression is not treated, u can get worst and u do not wanna get to that point. let out ur emotions though, dont keep them in. talk to someone close to u too. let them know what ur going through cuz trust me, ur gonna need some alone time and help from someone helping u care for the baby when u need ur alone time helps. dont feel like a bad mother, ur not. make urself better so u can begin enjoying ur new baby more. focus on the good things in life. but definately, go see a doctor. hope this helped. good luck to u.
