Is it me?

So tbh I don’t like my boyfriend anymore 🥺 and idk why but everything is starting to turn me off tbh I was so inlove when baby was first born but now everything gives me the ick and he looks so awkward when he hold the baby like he was never meant to have a child. And then some of his logic makes no sense like our baby has a cold and he got vapor rub and I told him the baby is too young we can’t use that yet and he’s gonna say “I wasn’t gonna put it on him I was just going to make him smell it incase he can’t breathe” like huhh?! If we can’t rub it on the baby skin why the hell would he think the baby could smell it so things like that turn me off I try to tell myself maybe it’s just apart of postpartum but idk I feel like I’m stuck in a relationship I don’t want to be in but at the same time I do I’m sorry if I’m confusing you guys but i honestly need some advice

Maternity pay

Hello all, just wondering if anyone knows. I'm a stay at home mum for my little one due to the extortionate childcare fees and not finding a job that would cover even half a day. If I got pregnant with a second child, would I still get the government maternity pay? Or because I'm not in a job, would I not get anything? Whilst I'm not pregnant now, I'm just stressing about the future because we do want more children...

Did I make a mistake.

I am 37 years old and I have an 18 month old boy and have been with the father of my child for almost 6 years. The relationship has never 100% been respectful as he has cheated multiple times, called me out of my name, etc. I found out he cheated then found out I was pregnant. I wanted to keep my family together and for our son to have an active parent. So I stayed

Pregnancy and postpartum was hard. He wasn’t working a steady job and I had to back to work very quickly to keep our income. Eventually he got a job and we were able to move into our own place. But we have not been intimate since the baby was conceived. Don’t get my wrong I sick him off when he needs it but that’s about it.

I’m the primary parent. Bathtime. Dropping and picking baby up. Packing bag. Making appointments. Soothing. EVERYTHING. he does change diapers sometimes but when I ask for help it’s like pulling teeth.

He gets angry and snaps at me or the baby “am I raising a boy or girl” when the baby is whining or something. Making me feel wrong for having any feelings outside of happiness.

Because of the disrespect and what I feel is emotional abuse. I decided to break up with him. In my head I know it was the right decision. I know I am grieving what could have been. But my heart is still breaking. I don’t know what my life looks like without this person whose been in my life for 6 years. I never wanted to raise a child by myself even though I know its possible. Starting for scratch at this age is daunting. And he already talking about getting a lawyer.

We have to stay in the same house because there’s 2 months on our lease and he says he will continue to provide the rent but he might leave the state. Which I already planned on doing to be closer to family. But I feel like I’ve ruined my family and my son is going to hate me.

Did I make a mistake? I know I didn’t but my heart says otherwise. Thank you for letting me vent.

My bd and I have been arguing a lot

Okay so we have a month old baby boy and I take care of him ALL day and ALL night. My bd does not work, he works from home. But He’s always on his video games. When I give him the baby to eat or to do anything, he comes to me 5 mins later and tells me “he wants mama”.. so I barely get anything done in the house. He gets mad at me because I don’t clean the house. Mind you it’s not even messy, it’s only dirty dishes or dirty laundry. He gets so upset that he has to do it. He calls me names like “stupid immigrant” and has threatened to take my baby away from me. Unfortunately I decided to move away 2,000+ miles away from my family to be with him and I can’t ask for their help. When I was around 7 weeks pregnant we got into a BIG fight because he hit me and I called the cops on him. He would call me a whore and that this baby wasn’t his. Lol I don’t know what to do. I can’t leave his ass because I don’t work.

Sex drive

Has anyone noticed a lack of a sex drive like there isn’t one
