Splitting from partner- TW

3 months post-partum, I had to go back to work full time at 6weeks. This is our rainbow baby, and because the job I'm at was "my dream career" we agreed he'd be a SAHD.

A girl sent me something weird but not bad a few weeks ago, just said she was thinking about me-but her and I never got along so it left a sour taste in my mouth. I checked his phone today and he's cheating.

Worse, I found very concerning p0rn searches and I no longer feel comfortable leaving him alone with our son. I don't think he'd do anything to hurt him, but I also didn't think he'd hurt me like this.

I don't know what to do because we don't have any other childcare arranged. My mom is abusive and I moved across the state to live with him when I found out I was pregnant. Rent is expensive and we're currently dependent on my income so I can't just quit to be at home with my son when neither of us have a job and I can't really rely on him to provide for us if I am kicking him out. I don't have any savings because I just had to buy a car after previous one was totaled.

I feel sick, I'm trying not to cry at work. I didn't confront him before leaving because I didn't want him to get upset while watching the baby. I know I have to leave but I'm so lost

What do you mean by very concerning porn searches and what would that have to do with the child? I didn’t really get this part but if this is what I am thinking it is, then you should not even have left him alone with your child again, and should acc report him. As for the cheating was this physical?messages? Do you have a friend or someone that would take you in while you get ur situation figured out/sorted?? As for the financial part, you would have to arrange childcare for ur baby and maybe ask for flexible hours at work? Or if you have someone you can rely on to look after ur child u could consider doing a part time or something. I’m sure being a single mom without the fathers support the government would help you in some way

Dads app!

I have been using this app for the last 6 months ish and found it brilliant for advice and making friends. My partner though doesn’t have any male friends who are dads and I was wondering if anybody knows of anything similar to this app that he could use to find some other dads local to us, to chat to/get advice/make friends etc. anyone any ideas? ☺️

Vitamins

Little one is now 6 months old and the Health Visitor recommended that we start giving her some vitamins. Anyone got any recommendations of good brands/where to buy these? Thanks ☺️
