Hi all,
My wife has suffered with OCD and Anxiety for a while and is beginning to get help through a local mental health service.
We're now pregnant, which is great, but this also gives her a new avenue of OCD to wrestle with.
We were at a wedding on Saturday (the first since COVID) so we're both a bit on tenter hooks with the pregnancy, she's only had 1 vaccine etc.
She went to the toilet for a wee and the inside of the gusset on her underwear touched the front exterior of the bowl. She's concerned about contracting things like STIs from it and now wants blood tests.
I really don't want to accommodate reassurance traps. I've told her we can get tested if she wants/can. The GP aren't the most understanding which is a shame.
Does anyone have any tips on how I can help support her?
Thanks in advance.
