Relationships

Last night my partner kicked off with me because I didn’t want to eat food. He preceded to tell me I’m starving the baby and I’m selfish then went onto saying more vile things. He then threw my prenatal depression in my face and started saying I’m not going to be a good mom and his going to take the child off me. I’m nearly 32 weeks and I have no where to go or a job. What do you do in this situation as he wants me out?

What on earth. He’s absolutely being ridiculous, hope you don’t think he’s right. Many women struggle to eat due to sickness and babies are absolutely fine, they take what they need and mum is the one left out. If you’re not hungry you’re not hungry. You need to figure out how serious he is about leaving, and start making plans. E.g. applying for benefits, housing etc. don’t put up with BS because you feel trapped, hopefully he’s just had an outburst and will come round.

Absolutely not. You listen to your body, if you're not hungry that's fine. Sometimes I'm not. the way he reacted is far from ok.

I would speak to your midwife as this is really concerning behavior from him. You can ring MAU triage and just explain the situation to them. There are options. Wishing you and your baby all good things. DM me if you need anything else x
