FTM to a gorgeous baby girl, 4 months. I’ve been overcome with anxiety th past couple days, can’t stop worrying that something will happen to my baby. Not sure why it’s come crashing down now but been in tears most of the time. OH is away on busines for two weeks and we’ve moved to the other side of the country so I haven’t got anyone around.
Nothing is objectively wrong with DD but I suffered a beeeavement during pregnancy (a friend’s daughter died during birth) and I haven’t been able to stop thinking about it, can’t get her images out of my mind, and can’t stop thinkin g about how fragile life is, that my own DD could be taken away from me at any minute. Terrified something will happen whilst OH away.
I’ve seen the GP twice but been fobbed off, told me I’m just a nervous FTM and to relax and that everything will be fine. I think I need counseling, don’t know how to go about getting it.
Please help with any suggestions, really struggling today.
