Anyone else a new mom here going through postpartum OCD?

I'm not a mom, one day I know I will be, and I am a sister.. I can understand in a certain way. I have had a lot of friends and family members who have felt the way (or a similar way) that you're feeling. All I know is that when anyone of them were in that kind of boat, they came to a friend, a sister or their own mothers, a professional helper, and sometimes sought help and comfort, or an ear and a hug from even a stranger. Talk to someone who will listen and you know will not judge and love you for everything you are. You're human, it's okay. You're loved, even I care about you and we've never met. I hope you have a good day or good evening @RC 😊 :) ♡

Hey! I know a lot of mom's which said this playlist helped them through sleepless nights with their young ones Both mum and baby liked it.. https://m.youtube.com/watch?v=o9DU26kNvmM ❤️

Yes I am a fellow mother with post partum ocd/anxiety! 🙋‍♀️ how old are you and how old is your little one? Where are you from? I don’t see many of our kind here!! 😂

Oh cool! I'm from the central valley! What about you?

You are close to the bay then right? How cool! I suffer from a few themes actually and they are all the "pure O" type. I still feel embarrassed to list them even though I know that they are just ocd themes. I have trouble with just right ocd, moral scrupulosity, false memory, pocd, relationship ocd, and a little harm & sexual orientation ocd. So yeah like basically all them lol 🤦‍♀️ What about you?

3am here too. I have had a lot of babies around in the family growing up and even more so now that older cousins are having families. I have kid brother who I've helped all my life, and it was hard. And in the end, truly one of the best things I have had happen to me in my life. He's so annoying and so adorable at the same time, he's so stubborn, brilliant and kind, and super weird. He's my lil best friend! :) I love him even if sometimes I don't have to like him, and I am thankful and grateful that he's in my life and that I'm in his. When the world seems dark he seems to be a kind of light. I'm so glad you see a thrapist and have a virtual support group, they both helped me in a time of need for certain things growing up ♡ :)

@Freemeofocd HI! I am 27 and my baby is going to be 2 months old in 3 days! We are from California. What about you?

What really lol I'm from Fresno!

*son or daughter

Same here, it is comforting to know that I am not alone! Having a baby triggered postpartum anxiety, ocd and depression. I have had chronic depression & anxiety plus ocd for 7 or so years now. But i stopped all meds during the pregnancy. And like 4 days after his birth I got bad ppd symptoms! He is a boy :) what about you?
