Ocd or is my sister going mad?

[jahsonroyParticipant]

Hello My sister has OCD and she had a baby boy 3 months ago and started getting some intrusive thoughts of harming him, she says she keep getting an image of her in my head harming him/g which is horrible but she says its just ocd and she would never do it. She was so convincing that I told her I believed, but I feel horrible because no matter how many times I tried to get out my head, I think about it and wonder if she’s actually going mad. She says her therapist says it’s ocd and now I feel horrid! Please tell me will she get better!?
