Ocd symptoms tend to increase during stress. Please recognise your stresses at this time (may be impending delivery, may be relationship with spouse/in laws etc, may be financial, social pressures etc). Fear of harm to pregnancy may also be obsessional. Talk about your fears to your trusted friends/husband. Tell them that you know which ones are un reasonable fears. Best wishes to you.
