AIBU to expect my husband to stay after an emergency caesarean?

[RudaRudoRude]

Name change as outing info before.
I had an emergency c section 3 weeks ago. Baby was 3 weeks early but fine. My DH has gone for the weekend to his parents for a large family celebration. I haven’t gone because I’m still really sore. I had the c section done with general anaesthetic as it was a real emergency they didn’t have time to do a epidural. I said to DH about him not going because I could do with help with the baby. I’m on my own and don’t have my own parents. His mum got upset so he’s gone there to the weekend party.
Now I’ve found out from a message from someone in his family who said to watch my back as my mil is implying that I can’t cope with the baby because I asked him to stay and he should look at leaving me and applying for custody.

I can cope with the baby, I was only asking him to stay because I really am sore and with having to do everything myself until Monday it feels a lot. I don’t know if I’m just hormonal or this isn’t fair. I didn’t think it was unreasonable to ask him to stay but was it?

They are writing a novel in their own heads Op, what's the betting that it would be a best seller in the best comedy, most implausible category. Let them rant, the more they do, the more ridiculous they sound

Much love and strength to you.

@RudaRudoRude I'm shocked but it has really shown their true colours and that you were right to leave and protect yourself and the baby. You'd have thought they would want to leave you alone given all their accusations. I hope your fm is doing well too. Keep on keeping on. You're doing amazingly well dealing with all this crap. x

@MMUmum - have you not read the update from the OP from yesterday night? Her first post was nearly 2 months ago, I’m afraid you’re not keeping up at the back here! An easy way to make sure you’re not responding unnecessarily is to press “see all” before you answer at all, that way you’ll be able to see the latest updates and won’t reply to something which has been superseded by later events.

I remember your thread. You are amazing as is your foster mum.
What sort of wierd nasty people behave like they did boogles the mind.
You've done really well thanks for updating.

Just sending you my love and support. What a wonderful thing you have got out of this now. But awful to be involved with such a toxic situation. If you want to move, go now before you're tied to an area for contact visits. Don't worry about asking for permission and don't leave yourself isolated.

As awful as it is to be assaulted and I'm so sorry that happened to you, it might make things easier for you in the future because he's shown his true colours to any future decision makers.
