Useless partner (sorry it’s long I need real good advice tho pls I feel so lost atm)

So I’m 3 weeks PP, my partner has been absolutely useless towards me, he won’t do any house work unless I literally go on and on and on and even then he won’t do it because he thinks I’m being a “bully” and walks out the house, I get called everything under the sun and walked out on pretty much everyday.. he has absolutely no interest in me, he’s either in the bathroom for ages, outside vaping or goes to sleep in the car now is the new thing and walking out on us all.

He went back to work last week which I get he’s tired but I’m doing EVERYTHING myself I also had stitches due to my birth so I can’t even lift anything atm.

I have a 5 year old who’s his step child so I’m basically cleaning up after 4 people including myself, he’s made jokes about “miss postpartum and my postpartum moods” I’m seriously so u happy in this relationship it started to get like this in my pregnancy but I didn’t wanna be alone, I’m really worried to be on my own again as it means I’m a single mum to two different kids and two different dads
I’ve been saying all night how fat I feel and upset I am and he’s just gone and said to me I’m a fat c**t and I have fat fingers apparently too lol.. how lovely!!

Can I just add I do cook every dinner, wash everything up, buy everything! I’ve paid for absolutely everything this month as he didn’t get paid for one week now apparently he has no money and can’t afford it but he can buy himself vapes. I feel incredibly lonely

Girls should I just leave and be strong
Or do I try and work this out for the kids ?

Baby fell off bed

My boy turned 8 months old today and unfortunately fell off my bed. He hit his head and has a 1.5cm graze. Took him to a&e and they cleared him. Sent home within under an hour. He has been fine, his normal self.
I just can’t shift the guilt and I keep crying whenever I think about it or see his graze.
I suppose I am writing this to offload but also gain any support/advice from others.
I’m already struggling atm feeling inadequate. This has just sent me over.

Cheating husband

Just found out my husband been having an affair, I'm done.
How do you navigate being a single parent with a 8 week old baby?

What are my next steps?

Vent

So I am being let go from my job due to company restructure. Feels like its happening everywhere this year.

Anyhow, I know this is stressing my husband to no end. We are living with his mother trying to buy a house which this puts a money wrench in that. Along with baby 3 due August.

I know he is stressed but I feel like he is emotionally punishing me for it. I wasn't fired, my end of year review was top notch. I have received many complaints from the Executive Team Leadership team and worked my ass off. Co.apny is having a cash flow issue. I make decent salary, I worked on AI project and with this they deemed my position no longer full-time.

But this coldness he is giving off is upsetting. I get that this puts us in a major bind. But why shut me out?? Why go flippin limp and have an irritable reaction when I give him a hug. Idk...

But this coldness makes me go crazy and think irrational, like f*ck it we should just divorce. 😫😭

Thanks for reading my rant

Witching hour

Anyone else struggling with this ‘witching hour’ or have any tips on how to calm it, my baby boy is 6weeks old, he has cried from around 6pm till about 8 since 2weeks old but this week the crying is more intense and is lasting a lot longer, my poor little man even sounds like he is getting a sore throat from all the screaming 💔😢

I'm yelling at the top of my lungs nowadays with a 3yo

3yo son

I'm a single mom not by choice

I'm so tapped out as a single mom every time my son whines because he's frustrated and can't figure something out screaming "WHATTTTTT" .. like "WHAT NOW?!!!!"

I literally walked away for two fucking seconds

It's the constant neediness. I get it but serious to fucking God I am TAPPED OUT TOUCHED OUT ABSOLUTELY GOING BONKERS

I'M LOSING MY COOL SO OFTEN NOWADAYS

I FEEL LIKE A POS

My son now picks up on my emotions.. he knows when I'm angry or annoyed because I say so. I don't sugar coat anything and I'm emotionally honest so he knows and matches mood with reality and does NOT get confused by my emotions. I make sure to do that

But I'm seriously losing my shit every single day now

I just can't anymore. I wanna die

What's the worst is when he's so tired I have to remind him how tired he is and sometimes have to just drop him in his crib and walk away

IS THIS NORMAL????
