For how long have you been on the meds? They can make you feel a bit weird when you first go on them. I remember feeling like my head had been put on upside down and stuffed with cotton wool for the first few weeks I was on them.

I know that it must be really scary to get help, but mental health professionals are used to dealing with people with similar intrusive thoughts, and though your child's safety is obviously a priority, therapists say that if children are safe with anyone, they are safe with people who have this kind of OCD! Because however strong the intrusive thoughts, they don't act on them and would never do so.

Do give self-help books a go. Overcoming Obsessive Compulsive Disorder has case studies that are similar to yours. It's also an encouraging book. There are others that are useful, but this one is particularly good and some parts are available to download online.
