pregnant and crying

Posted on 09/08/09, 08:34 pm

i'm in a very disfunctional relationship. there is absolutely no trust and i can see we're heading mo where. in addition to the no trust he's an achoholic and he comes from a family of achoholics. he said he was gonna work on changing but i haven't seen any true changes. i'm seven months pregnant with my first child and it's been a rough pregnancy the stress and worry of my relationship is causing me great heartache. i know i should not stress but i'm in a difficult place right now.

  gwwwm,
  I know how it is when you are living with someone who is abusive, and causes you stress when you are pregnant, been there too. Throughout my whole pregnancy I used to cry myself to sleep, that's how bad it was. If he truly wants to change there is AA meetings, as a suggestion to you my dear friend look up Al-anon meetings. Those meetings are for people who live with an alcoholic, they are great! They will help you focus on yourself, and your child.
  Sounds also like you want to live, if you do is the best choice you can make for yourself and for your child so, like elle stated, he would not repeat the cycle or she wont think is ok to stay in a relationship like that.
  I have been taking care of my daughter for 4 years not a dime from him (not that I care) and it has been struggles and hard sometimes but I can tell you I am happier, I am at peace, and I can do what I want without worrying about how the other person would react. It only gets better!!! xoxo
