You need to keep faith in Allah Almighty as He is the healer and the ultimate power. Don't need to stress out on this. You need to feel and think good about yourself first if you want to nurture a psychologically and physically healthy child. If you want to consult a psychologist i am all ears.

Hey, genetic abnormalities due to cousin marriages occur mostly in the case if such practice is common generation to generation. If that is not the case then you have nothing to worry about. Also you are worrying without any reason. Nobody knows the fate of a baby being born except the Almighty. You can get your scans and tests done on time to detect any early signs of abnormalities. A gynaecologist can gujde you better on this. But if you would like to get counselling on how to deal with this stressful situation you are more than welcome to book a skype session through the contact provided on site.

I can understand your concerns are genuine... Its what commonly prevailing in our society. Genetic issues are becoming common but you don't have to worry if cousin marriages is not the trend in your family. And if that is the case your gynecologist will guide you best because not with every case genetic issues happen.... Beside genetic, psychological issues can be Controlled by you.. Stay positive, stay happy... Allah will help you...
Feel free to contact if any further query bothers you....

Be relaxed. Don't get much panic. First of all be happy about the good
news. And secondly its not necessary that if parents are having genetic
history then the newborn wilp also be having any kind of psychological
problems. Try to keep yourself happy. Dont take any kind of psychiatric
medicine during your conception period. Everything will be fine

congratulations, I can understand the good news has brought some concerns, and its good that you care enough to be knowledgeable about them. You can go for monthly ultrasound scans and ask your sonologist to show you your beautiful child. Speak to someone you trust about your depression, there are ways to manage it without medicines, consider NLP for it. I am a pro-life person so aborting a baby just because they are different, doesn't sit fine with me. Allah creates whatever he wills, he makes no mistakes, just variety. Every child is unique and needs love and affection. I would encourage you to let the gossips enter from one ear and exit from the other. let me ease your anxiety by saying that Everything can be managed or treated in someway and babies are miracles so marvel at the gift u have been given.
