I asked him to leave! Have I done the right thing?
Have I done the right thing? Recently my partner has been drinking a lot more having 3/4 pints after work or having 2 pints without eating so goes straight to his head he drives home gets back slurring being load those nights end in him having a go at me because I’ve asked a normal question he will then pass out on the floor or sofa. He shouts at me and swears at me calling me horrible things. I’m meant to be his wife. The drinking got bad on Tuesday he did it again I told him I couldn’t keep doing this and things had to change the next day he agreed things would change he went to work today obviously had a drink because when I got back from cleaning he was nearly asleep on the sofa I asked what he wanted down with the food in the airfryer I got a shitty reply asked him what the date was as my phone ran out of battery and he ripped shouting at me mimicking me swearing so I told him that was it and he had to go. I was upset but relieved at the same time I’ve got 2 kids have I done the right thing.
I’ve had 3 messages from him since he left telling me to have an awful birthday next week and that he will be going for custody and that it was all my fault. He left the house shouting “you dirty fucking arsehole you ginger fucking slut” I can’t deal with it anymore.

You did the right thing. He was a stress in your life, and was soon to be one for your kids. You deserve somebody so much better ❤️
You did the right thing, you taught your children a lesson that leaving situations like that is healthy. And you’ve done right by yourself. Children shouldn’t be raised in a home like that
I find it hard I never and would never talk to people they way him spoke to me I’ve never grown up around it either
So he’s just walked back in saying that even though I don’t want him here the children do and that we need to do it properly not how it happened tonight I mean I asked him to leave and he’s come back so we’ve got to go through all this tomorrow and get into another argument?
Fight for custody and he can’t even stop drinking to save his marriage and family is nonsense. You absolutely did the right thing and stick to your guns because that is so dangerous for you and your babies to be around that behavior. Sending you love ❤️

Thoughts please?
So my boyfriend has told me today that his dad said he wants a "boys day out" meaning him, baby dad, and our 6 month old.
Now I wouldn't have a problem with it if he'd made more of an effort to see him, but he doesn't bother. He lives 10 minutes away and has seen his grandson 5 times since he's been born. 3 of those times we went to him. We keep inviting him round but he's always too busy. Most of the time when he tries to hold baby he cries so after trying to help soothe him from the sidelines for a couple of minutes I take him back.
I have only been away from my baby twice and he's been with his dad. Once was for a haircut and I was gone 2 hours and another for a few hours out with a girlfriend. Both times I was less than 15 minutes from home. Being away from him gives me anxiety, and FIL wants to take him to a zoo over an hour away. Should I suck it up and allow it?

I don’t think I want any more children
It really breaks my heart as I wanted 3 children but motherhood was not what I thought it would be.
My son is nearly 10 months old and he cries, all day, every day. He doesn’t do anything, babble, crawl, transition to sitting, or copy toys.
He is exhausting, I love the absolute bones off him and it his not his fault at all but he has made me not want any more children, I feel like I’m constantly drained, upset and worrying. I don’t even think I remember the last time I smiled. I see other mums with babies the same age and they are laughing, smiling, starting to crawl or even pull themselves to cruise and he just lays there, miserable, every single day. He was never the happiest newborn, but he’s getting worse with time and I dread having to go through this again with another child. It makes me really upset as maybe the next one will have an easier time being a baby, but I don’t know if I can risk it 😭💔

What to do?
He kept telling me 5 mins I told him no he said 2 minutes I said no ur gay what he told me
Got mad cz I didn’t wanna fuck.
My son woke up try to cuddle him and he is pushing his arm away he thought my leg was touching his leg he told me don’t touch me
Asked for his 40 bucks all rude I told him it’s in my book so he started getting almost all my books off the bookshelf until he found it
He turns on the big light to get ready for work that he wakes up my kid and brother
My kid was upset he turned on the light and asked his dad something I don’t remember what but he said shut up
He couldn’t find the hairbrush so he tells me u can’t look for it I don’t need to go to work
And he took off his location off
And he went to work

Toddler eating
If your toddler doesn’t eat enough in the day, do they wake up in the night hungry?

What do you do whilst getting ready?
This may sound like a selfish question but my little one has just started crawling, sitting herself up and pulling to stand all in 24hrs, she’d previously play in her next2me while I got myself ready and packed her bag ready for the day but that’s not safe anymore - I’m now at a loss of where she will be safe while I get stuff ready to go out!
