Purely OCD Me: April 2012
http://purelyocdme.blogspot.com/2012_04_01_archive.html
Monday, April 23, 2012. Long Time No Post. Well, here I am, at nearly 11 weeks along, and I'm actually feeling ok. My energy is a little better, the nausea is seeming to get a bit better (though I hesitate to type this as it has a way to turn around on you). I've now seen the little bean on an ultrasound, heart beat is strong, baby is where it should be. Monday, April 2, 2012. Morning Sickness, and Pregnancy anxiety. Period in pregnancy. I'm looking forward to loving my belly. How cool is that? But, desp...

Purely OCD Me: March 2012
http://purelyocdme.blogspot.com/2012_03_01_archive.html
Sunday, March 25, 2012. Taking care of me first. Well, after a week on a slightly lower dose, I feel totally fine and stable. And, I feel strangely more at peace with the decision. I'm not freaking out at all hours of the day, and don't feel any real increase in symptoms. If symptoms increase, I will go back up. I'm really dealing with this well. My first OB appointment is in a few weeks. Maybe that will make this feel less surreal. Thursday, March 15, 2012. At least there is no morning sickness. I calle...

Purely OCD Me: December 2011
http://purelyocdme.blogspot.com/2011_12_01_archive.html
Saturday, December 24, 2011. Wednesday, December 21, 2011. What if uncertainty scares the bejesus out of me? How can you chose to become a parent with so many "what ifs? I feel a bit frozen. Like the idea of moving forward isn't possible. I want to be happy. I want to feel like I get to have the life I want. What if I don't deserve that and end up breaking my husband's heart and ruining my future children's lives in the process? This is my mind today. Monday, December 19, 2011. Or was this me? Holy crap ...

Purely OCD Me: Morning Sickness, and Pregnancy anxiety
http://purelyocdme.blogspot.com/2012/04/morning-sickness-and-pregnancy-anxiety.html
Monday, April 2, 2012. Morning Sickness, and Pregnancy anxiety. Period in pregnancy. I'm looking forward to loving my belly. How cool is that? The idea that for a short period in life, I get to look at my growing belly with joy. Can't wait. In other news, I've been able to reduce my meds by a third, and so far so good. Yes, I still have irrational thoughts, but I am still able to move on with my life and not spend my life focused on them. Though, there are a few themes. Now for another saltine. Hi Ive re...

Purely OCD Me: Mindfulness, CBT, and the ever ellusive Trust
http://purelyocdme.blogspot.com/2012/03/mindfulness-cbt-and-ever-ellusive-trust.html
Sunday, March 4, 2012. Mindfulness, CBT, and the ever ellusive Trust. Long time no post. She reminded me that:. 1 I am not pregnant at this time, so I am causing myself a lot of distress over something that isn't actually a current problem. 2 That there will be unknowns during pregnancy no matter what I do. She also has said that focusing on a combination of CBT and mindfulness may be the best course for me. March 5, 2012 at 11:08 AM. It sounds like you have a great therapist! Im working on CBT and mindf...

Purely OCD Me: Fear
http://purelyocdme.blogspot.com/2012/03/fear.html
Thursday, March 15, 2012. Well, so far things are going alright. I'm exhausted, and I've definitely had some food aversions. Otherwise, things feel pretty unchanged physically. It is so scary. I just want to do everything right. I suppose I want to have the perfect pregnancy and the perfect outcome. I keep trying to remind myself that there is no such thing as the perfect pregnancy, but, I'm not sure it's helping. At least there is no morning sickness. March 16, 2012 at 8:05 AM.

Saturday, January 21, 2012. How to make difficult decisions. In other news- I have an appointment to begin CBT! Part of me hopes that maybe with therapy I'll be able to reduce my dose a bit if I do get knocked up. But, we'll see. I'll be sure to keep you all updated on it all. I'm feeling positive.

Pure O Canuck: January 2012
http://pureocanuck.blogspot.com/2012_01_01_archive.html
I am a Canadian with OCD and this is my blog about recovering from the "Pure O" form of OCD. My way of reaching out to others with OCD in order to provide support, helping to educate non-sufferers, and gaining lots and lots of support along the way. January 28, 2012. OCD and The Doormat. OCD is prevalent in so many areas of my life.it’s not just limited to obsessing about my sexual orientation and my “significant other” relationships. And that goes for ANY of my relationships. It causes big problems beca...
