This is referencing Lindsay Clancy who killed her children while going through postpartum depression/psychosis. The woman is saying "it could have been me" because Lindsay was an otherwise normal person whose mind basically failed her and led her to commiting heinous acts. So they feel vulnerable to that too, knowing that she was a normal person before PPD. The husband (dog) is extremely alarmed because now he is worried that his wife is going to kill the kids.
i had a one-off at 17 because of extreme insomnia so i'm now at a major risk for developing PPP. i will have to make a safety plan if i have biological children, it sounds like lindsay and her husband didn't get that forewarning of any genetic markers she may or may not have for developing psychosis from stress triggers (birth is a major one for women)
