Is this pp anxiety

I wanna start out by saying heavy trigger warning. For the past 2 months I’ve had very recurring thoughts that someone is going to break into my house. It’s gotten to the point where I have a plan for if someone does. It’s terrible and I don’t even want to be home alone. I do have anxiety previous to having my baby but it was never this bad. Is this a form of postpartum anxiety?

I have horrible dreams, pretty much every night about bad things happening to my baby while being outside ( town/ going to the shops). I now struggle to leave the house on my own unless someone else is with me, which is so sad as I love being outside. I think what we are experiencing could be classed as pp anxiety, but after speaking to my mum she also said she experienced this and said it's normal to feel these thoughts and it gets better over time. Feel free to message me if you ever wanted to talk xx
