To be annoyed he's stopped paying maintenance

Up until now DP has been paying monthly maintenance for DD.

Has given up his job to help look after DD as i have the higher income and need to be working more within the next couple of months when DD is around 9 months old. I own my own company.

He still has this month and next month full pay and is still working for another full month.

Now moved in to my house and has not mentioned contributing to bills in any way. We were not living together until now as we had previously split up and were getting things back on track.

I guess he is assuming I will take care of it all now.

He will be working for me in the future and so will earn money from that.

I am fuming that he has stopped DDs money already without even a discussion. Am I wrong?

But as if they are written by different people. This OP sounds defensive or lacking in something. Crux is the relationship doesn't sound happy, trusting or transparent.

Very defensive

I am the primary care giver.

She is worried the relationship is on its last legs and he will try for custody

I am not a cold person at all. Thanks for all your comments it's so nice to doubt myself and my / our decisions.

I am a great mum to DD and hopefully a good partner to DP. DP is a great dad and no matter what you have all concluded based on a few words I have written, our relationship and family unit as a whole is strong.

Thanks for all the input though!

I don't doubt that you are a good mother at all. And that you are doing very well in raising her and running a business. There is no reason to doubt yourself.
