Can I overcome this feeling?

I know I have PPD, but sometimes I don’t understand why I feel the way I do and if it is due to PPD. I’m never 100% on here about how I feel because some people can be very judgmental and don’t understand. First off I love my baby unconditionally but I get feelings of not wanting to spend time with him or look after him so I have to get his auntie to take over. I don’t want to feel like this, I want to enjoy my time with my baby but I really don’t, it feels like a chore, I hate being a parent and when I ask my partner if he likes being a parent he says he loves it and he loves being with his son but I just can’t seem to understand why he would enjoy it, what’s there to enjoy? During my postpartum journey I have had many different feelings and these are just a few but I was wondering if anyone can relate to this?

Me completely. My husband says it’s not a chore to spend time with her but sometimes it is. I don’t have the same passion or drive for her that he does and that makes it difficult for me.
