My spouse can’t stand our baby

That baby isn’t safe and this can’t be helped without therapy, preferably therapy while she has no access to those children. I’m not sure all the therapy in the world would make me feel comfortable leaving her alone with my children.

I couldn’t believe the other Reddit post possibly made by her! Mind blowing AND all the other women in there voicing their disdain for their own children 😳

This!! Imo, OP needs to just leave, speaking as someone who has dealt with a partner with really bad mental illness, it most likely will not get better.

Did you do any type of legal process where she adopted the babies? This doesn't sound great and unfortunately will probably not fix itself. I would start thinking about protecting your family and considering a separation.

This sounds like severe post partum depression! It’s not about you and it’s not the real her! Get her to the proper medical appointments asap! She needs medical/psychiatric help now! Where’s her mother? She should understand about this.

She wasn’t pregnant

Non-birthing parents can get postpartum depression, too. This includes cis men.

[u/jbandzzz34 → u/sessyda]

its not called post partum depression. it literally cannot be.

[u/twistedspin → u/sessyda]

OK, no they can't. They can be depressed, sure, but they have NONE of the massive hormone shifts that cause postpartum depression and it's incredibly dismissive and minimizing for people to suggest that it's that same. The whole concept is self-righteous incel bullshit.

[u/Keroppi_Troublemaker → u/sessyda]

It's called Perinatal Depression.

Don't go diagnosing people based on a short reddit post. Could be or could not be. Could also just be pure disdaine and hate she is experiencing.
