My husband had an emotional affair whilst I was pregnant
I was pregnant when I found out my husband had an emotional affair with his colleague. Turned out she was pregnant with her husbands child too, but still flirted with him. I have now given birth to my baby, but still feel hurt and gutted (even though he’s trying to make me feel better and super remorseful). I told my MIL about it, and she keeps telling me that I need to call 111 for mental health support because I feel like this due to hormones. However, I can’t help but feel like she’s setting me up to take my kids away from me because I’ll have mental health on my record. I just need to hear that I’m not going crazy and it’s normal for me to feel like this?

It’s absolutely normal to feel like this!! Shame on him for doing what he did! You don’t need to call 111…. You need to call him a prick 😘 xx
Firstly you won’t have your children taken away from you for having mental health issues. I have very complex mental health and a baby and doing perfectly fine. Secondly it’s normal to feel like that. Try sitting down with your husband and speaking about how you feel.

It is 100% normal to feel like that! You were busy growing a child and he was selfish doing what he thought he needed to do to feel good about himself. It's not hormones or mental health. It's reasonable anger at the way he has poorly treated you 'xxx
