Not wanting to hang out with a toddler – AITA?

A planned beach trip with friends was canceled because one of the friends invited his girlfriend and their toddler. The post writer, who has previously expressed discomfort around the child, decided to stay home instead. This decision led to the friend getting offended and accusing the post writer of not being a true friend. The post writer has no issue with the girlfriend but does not want to hang out with the toddler all the time.
