I get that you're somewhat distressed about your daughter's appearence (I assume you're not trolling), but to be honest, ALL babies look somewhat odd in their first year. Understable since they spent the last 9 months living in their mother's womb, going from a microscopic cellule to a full-fledged little human.
But with regular care, surgeries and support (underline this), as well as with time, I'm pretty sure she'll grow up to be a cool kid.

Also, why do you act like being a freak is a bad thing ;) ?

In movies, it seems like people instantly fall in love with everything about a new baby. For many of us it takes time to get to know them-and yes- some of the things we notice can be shallow. It's okay to acknowledge that. Please be patient with yourself. So much about birth, especially the birth of child with a birth defect, is stressful. It's ridiculous the pressure to feel instantly happy. For me, cleft meant that the fairy tale of the "perfect" kid was gone. Overtime, I got to see her, the real person and I saw that no kid is "perfect" to begin with. There were days when I'll admit, I avoided going out . But what was really surprising for me when we did go out was the amount of support we got from people. And days when I completely could of cared less what anyone else thought- I was so wrapped up in her. For me it was a process.

Thank you for your support and understanding. #patientlyadjusting

My mother used to think the same way. And as a result of that she would leave me with my aunts and go out with my nephew( who was 3 months older than me and a beautiful babyboy)
It still breaks my heart but it's understandable.

I am so sorry AmaraSwane.

She's just a baby and plastic surgeons will help her look as normal as possible. Let the doctors do their part and as a parent you will not help her live a normal life if you are "too embarrassed" to raise a child with a birth defect that luckily is fixable. I'm guessing you are a young parent..?

I want you to know as a parent of a child with cleft lip and palate and also having it myself. There is nothing you should be embarrassed about. Yes she will look like a creature from another planet for a while. But after she has surgery she will look the way she was supposed to. She will always have a scar. But thankfully that can be covered up as well. So the little girl that you always dreamed of having will come to light. And I promise you will get the support you need even when you don't expect it. I hope this will help you. And I hope you see she will never be a freak but a beautiful little girl.
