the main character’s mysterious illness makes her feel/seem like she is hallucinating and her spouse thinks she is mentally unstable. also, their daughter lies to the main character and accuses the spouse of something he did not do. so… sort of? yes

mother tells child to “go away” because the mother is sick, child feels lonely/neglected after this but it’s not likely to be super triggering

It's not bloody, but there are many scenes with clusters of ticks on people's bodies and faces, which may gross you out in a similar way.

There's a childbirth scene where you can hear a baby cry very briefly, and a flashback where people are leaving their town and a baby is crying. I don't know why someone voted "no"
