Hi Jeffrey,
I can relate to your obsessive worries. I go through them myself - one thing you can do when this happens is try to realize it's your ocd - and that the thought is greatly distorted there is also a very good book you could read in addition to your meds called "Mind Over Mood" - along the lines of cognitive behaviorial therapy - if you work through the exercizes in the book they do help - unfortunately I get lazy and don't always go back to it when my ocd kicks in. But these can be helpful in addition to your meds - also Lucinda Basset "Attacking Anxiety" - supplement some of these things. I think another book "Brain Lock" ??? is good. Add these things and I think they will be helpful.
Your baby will be fine- just realize it is your ocd flaring up.
All the best,
Mary
