unfortunately there isnt really a way to.
sometimes a person that has it is the only
one that will understand. i got the same

dont let any one tell you that its in your
head. thinking about it can make it worse
but its real

well it could also be that he doesnt want
to admit that there could be something
wrong with his baby. my mom was like that.
let us know how it goes.
