Does this warrant a therapy session

Ems

I had a rough pregnancy with my daughter who I had in March. So many things about it were awful. Now I’m terrified to ever get pregnant again. We always use condoms and never slip up. Hormones make me feel extremely sick so the only other options besides condoms are paragard which I’ve heard so much crap about and it’s more for couples who don’t use condoms, or abstinence.

Is it normal to be terrified of getting pregnant or is it something that warrants a therapist? Is it stupid of me to still have Sex because of my fear even though we use protection? Someone tell me if they’ve been through this or not.

It also doesn’t help that last month I got my first post partum period because I’m nursing and now I’m late and scared of a microscopic tear or something.
