Im almost 20 weeks and myself and dh are going through a very difficult patch.
I found out he cheated on me at 9 weeks pregnant and have been pretty much very upset since.
We've been fighting alot , both our faults, I will admit completely to being very very arguementative, bitchy, hard work, overly emotional and all round just plain difficult.
The arguements get very very bad and usually end up with me crying, I dont mean a few tears - its gone to my uncontrollable sobbing, shaking, finding it difficult to breath and panicing. My dh is unaffected by this, doesnt attempt to stop it and shouts alot.
I dont want to talk about the relationship but basically want to know what effect this is having on my unborn baby?
Im completely wracked with guilt about this all going on when Im pregnant and my main concern at the moment is the baby.
Common sense tells me that this all is having an obvious negative efffect on baby but I'm looking for some hard factual information that I can also pass on to dh in the hopes that some of this will stop. I hope Im wrong (that it is having no effect) and would happily be proven so..
Thank you so much for reading and for any help you could offer us x
