I had been doing well and then someone triggered me and then I got banned from fb I don't why but it made me feel even worse. I suffer harm OCD and I fear I harmed a baby by doing the "crotch hold" in essence you hold baby with hand between legs (crotch) and face them out. Next day I wondered if this hold is abusive or harmful but the mum said it's fine and the police say it is approved.
Have you ever held your babies by crotch or anything? Am I evil?
That hold is OK to me too as I did childcare for 25 years and I found holding the baby that way I can still have one arm free to serve morning tea or lunch or afternoon tea for the other children
How are you today xxxx

Hi Shaz
I'm ok are you definitely positive that the crotch hold is ok? No drama?
