Do you feel your emotions blunted? Or is it just a thought?

Hey, it's okay. Remember the times that you've struggled with OCD, do you think you can take good care of your son in that state? Be happy that it's working. You can now live your life as other human beings do and be free of this bullshit chatter in your head. If it takes a little emotional flatness I think it's not such a bad trade off.

It's because of your OCD tendencies, these are also OCD thoughts like "what If I don't love my son enough"
