What was the birth story of Hephaestus?
His mother, Hera, was surprised that Zeus "gave birth to" Athena and Dionysus on his own. She instantly gave birth to Hephaestus. But he was so ugly, she threw him off Mt. Olympus.( some stories say that Zeus threw him off because he sided with Hera in an argument) He was then found and nursed back to health by Thetis, a sea nymph. He got his revenge by making a throne and when Hera sat in it she was captured in it. The other gods then persuaded him to let her go by offering Aphrodite in marrige. Since she was so beautiful, he agreed.
Does Hephaestus love his mother after he found out that at birth she rejected him?
It depends on which version of the story you read. One version states that Hephaestus was to hera by Parthenogensis (without the aid of a male consort) and that he was an incredibly dutiful child. So much so that he came to her aid when Zeus had her in fetters for opposing him. In anger, Zeus kicked him from Olympus and he fell for a whole day before landing in the ocean. The impact made him lame. Another version of the tale, though, says that Hera threw his away because he was born lame. And this made him resent his mother. He hated her so much that he sent a golden throne to her, knowing she couldn't resist sitting in it. But the chair trapped her and bound her in such a way that none of the gods, even Zeus, could free her. Hephaestus at first refused aid, stating "I have no mother". Later, Dionysus was sent to beg his aid, and this time, after becoming very intoxicated, Hephaestus not only released Hera, but begged her forgiveness. After this, he was granted back his seat in heaven (though he preferred to be in the smithy).

Why was Hephaestus crippled?
There are several answers regarding this topic. (1) Hephaestus was thrown from Olympus by his mother, Hera, when she saw his unsightly face. As he fell, he was crippled by a ledge or was crippled by the landing. (2) Hephaestus was crippled in his forges. When his mother, Hera, saw him as a cripple, she was disgusted. Repulsed, she threw her son (disowning him in the process) from Olympus. All of the stories agree on what happens next: When Hephaestus lands in the ocean, the ocean beings cared for him for many months - and possibly years. Some time during that time, he sought revenge on his hateful mother. He sent her a golden throne. She, being extremely obsessed with perfection, loved automatically. However, when she sat upon it, she found herself unable to get up. Hephaestus had designed it to trap her. The other Olympians realised what had happened and begged Hephaestus to return and free her. Eveventually, Dionysus (the God of Wine) sought out the spiteful Hephaestus and rendered him drunk. He then brought the unconcious God back to Olympus where he realised his mother. Before he had a chance to leave, Zeus (his father) asked him to stay and work in his forges again. Hephaestus agreed, but was always quite cold towards Hera who acted the same in return.
