Hello. Writing this post as I hope someone will share advice and experiences. I am a fairly new mother who is now experiencing anxiety. I am afraid that everything could be dangerous for my baby, bacteria especially. This means that there is a lot of thought and focus on this. I'm afraid if the pacifier falls down, I'm afraid if my hands are dirty and therefore have to wash my hands a lot and I'm generally afraid of bacteria and of the baby becoming seriously ill. This is something I spend all day thinking about in most of what I do, what could be dangerous and how I can solve it. No solutions seem safe enough, and I often have anxiety because I think that most things can be dangerous when the baby is so small. I am getting help for this, but was wondering if anyone has experience with something similar themselves and would like to share what has helped?
