Struggling to know where to start...
Been married for four years, two children aged 2 and 4 months.
I have had depression with both pregnancies.
We have just moved to a bigger house in a village to get away from rough area in our local city.
Things should be great but I don't know if I can stay married to my husband :(
I have to pussyfoot around trying not to upset him all the time and never know what is going to set him off.
The latest row... He works abroad every July for a month. Ages ago, I asked him if it was ok if my mum comes up at the end of June for a couple of days (she's only seen the baby a couple of times) and he said that's fine as he was going to be working a lot preparing and packing for his trip.
Last night we were going thought the calendar and he went mad because my mum is coming up just before he goes away. He said 'this is the fourth year in a row you've done this to me' and accused me of putting other people first and acting like he doesn't exist.
I'm so genuinely confused as to what I've done wrong - I asked him if it was ok and he said yes, and now he's changed his mind.
I haven't seen my mum for two months and am struggling with a toddler and a baby.
TBH I'm looking forward to him going away as I won't have to put up with his moods and try to placate him all the time. It feels like I've got three children, not two!
As a child of divorced parents myself I didn't ever want my kids to go through what I went through but I don't know how much more of this I can take.
Nothing is straightforward, he gets angry about things all the time and stresses out in front of the kids. My daughter is always saying 'I don't want to see Daddy'
This is the latest in a very long series of similar incidents and I feel like I'm going to have a breakdown if I continue in this way.
I just don't know what I would do or where the kids and I would go. I feel so upset as we've only just moved into our house :( please help.
