Your sister sounds dramatic.

A woman who had a baby two months ago is a raging mass of confusing hormones. EVERYONE who loves her should be in support mode to help her through this traumatic event. You behaved selfishly. It's about her, not you.

If you truly are revolted by holding babies (there's something wrong with you), then you could have handled it by saying how beautiful the baby is, that you are uncomfortable holding a fragile child, and you can see it better if someone else holds it near you. And then make a point of showing the baby and your sister attention.

My guess is that you are a little peeved that for once someone else is the center of attention in your family.

Absolutely. There most definitely something wrong with those type of people. It's understandable that some people don't want to have kids. After all, kids are a huge responsibility that lasts a lifetime. It's even more understandable that some may be hesitant to hold a newborn. You have to be careful and their heads flop around. They are fragile

But to be so revolted by babies that you refuse to touch one simply because you find all babies disgusting is something totally different. That says a lot more about you than the baby. Would you tell your 80 year old grandma, "no grandma I will not hug you. I don't like old people because they're disgusting."
