Ever had an intrusive thought? Diagnosed with postpartum OCD
? Want to know how to STOP these awful images and thoughts?
The prolific and amazing Karen Kleiman’s new book is now available for pre-ordering on Amazon.com. It’s called “Dropping the Baby & Other Scary Thoughts: Breaking the Cycle of Unwanted Thoughts In Motherhood”. Her book, co-written with Amy Wenzel, explains what the thoughts are, why they are there and what to do about them. It comes out on December 10 (my birthday, ironically), but as far as I’m concerned it can’t come out fast enough! I know that so many of you have intrusive thoughts and will really benefit from Karen’s guidance and insight.
And … shhhh … I’ve got a fun little secret: I wrote the foreward. How exciting is that?! It was a ridiculously wonderful honor to be asked to write it, and I enjoyed being able to share a little bit of my experience.
I’m so excited about this book.
oh, I can't wait!!
How awesome is that? Love it for you. Congrats! I will look for it on my Kindle. Remind us when it comes out, OK?
Congrats on such a great honor! I'm really excited to write this book. I think when it comes to postpartum mood disorders, PPOCD is one of the least talked about and most misunderstood, so I am really excited there will be a whole book about it. Thanks for letting us know!
so so looking forward to it. i'll be preordering!
Is there any way that someone, maybe a blogger who is willing to write a review, could get an advanced copy? I'm having a LOT of intrusive thoughts right now, particularly about my older two kids, at 25 weeks pregnant and need all the help I can get.
I have a modest but loyal readership at http://prettybabies.blogspot.com .
I've been to Karen's training for therapists. She's awesome! That's pretty cool that you wrote the foreward! The postpartum world is lucky to have you and Karen:) Looking forward to reading it!!
That is so freaking awesome! I look forward to reading it!
I am going to order it. I would never have known about this. I am so excited about reading this book now. There is not alot of info about Postpartum OCD. Thank you so much for posting this!
