Bad Anxiety- New baby (FTM)

Hi guys! I am a FTM and my baby boy is almost two weeks. I have extreme anxiety and am petrified he will stop breathing. I find myself checking his breathing constantly, it’s to the point I am not getting any sleep.

I have purchased a breathing monitor called the Snuza Hero- which clips onto his diaper and monitors belly movements. This still hasn’t given me the warm and fuzzy. And hasn’t helped me.

This is a horrible feeling and I’m driving myself insane. Is anyone else having this issue? Any suggestions on how to break myself of this or put my mind at ease?

He is a healthy boy! No issues. HELP.... I already take Zoloft for anxiety, has the dose upped last week.
