What is postpartum OCD?

​Have you ever experienced unwanted thoughts or images about bringing harm to your child? Do you find these thoughts unbearable, gut-wrenching, and yet, you can’t control them from entering your mind? 

Have you noticed that the more you try to get rid of them, the more often they seem to terrorize you?

You may struggle with postpartum or perinatal OCD. Lets go through what it is, the causes, and treatment!

Hi Nathan,

Thanks for your video on post partum OCD. I experienced this when my wife was pregnant with our first child. I had horrendous thoughts that I could poison the child that my wife was carrying. As a consequence, I was officially diagnosed with OCD when I was 35 years old - though I had suffered (unknowingly) OCD thoughts since I was young. My daughter is now 31 years old but I still have to deal with OCD in a variety of ways even now, Thanks for your insights into OCD - they are invaluable and much appreciated,

Tony
