i agree with many here. fake it till you make it! my son was placed at 14 months and he is now 20 months. we went through a lot of what has been mentioned so far. screaming for no reason, fighting, hitting, kicking, pushing me away when i held him, whiny, cranky, etc.
now he is a very happy, well-adjusted, loving toddler. he is spirited and always will be, but so much better than when we began. and i held him ALL the time. especially when he cried, had tantrums, and would push me. i just held him tighter and tighter. look up attachment parenting and follow the advice of others on here.
believe me, i used to think there was something seriously wrong with my son. but he has moved past it. and keep telling yourself and others you love her so much and before you know it, you will really mean it! really, she will grow on you. good luck and keep at it!
