....dh admitted he is jealous of ds who is a couple of months old. He gets upset when Im breastfeeding - which we do a lot, as ds is a hungry baby, and tells me ds will get a mother complex and is obsessed with boobies. I pointed out there was nothing sexual in it and ds is too little to have a mother complex. He then got cruel and said when ds was grown up he wouldnt want to know me at all, and would never talk to me and wouldnt like me.

Im so upset. Dh is clearly talking rubbish, but with him like this and a jealous older child...

Dh makes me to to a toilet if there is no feeding room available when we are out, and gets very upset if i feed ds in front of anybody.

Ive had it with his behvaiour...any ideas of how to persuade him that Im doing the best thing for our son and me breastfeeding him is just a mummy baby thing..

Ive decided to keep on breast feeding, those of you that said he would find something new to pick on were right.
Dh and i are talkng about a divorce. Its just a symptom of how crap things are and how awfulhe is to be with and how useless and immature and jealous of the kids. he is not a ggood dad or husband. partly a culture clah, but mostly just him.

I am so sorry - as I was reading through this, I was thinking if it wasn't the bfing, it would be something else. Plus a father who really wanted the best for his children wouldn't mind you breastfeeding.

I am terribly sorry you are going through this, but you may find continuing to feed your baby will be a great comfort to you.

Stay strong, and best wishes
Carrie

honestly, the humiliation and cruelty he is subjecting YOU to, is not something I'd want to introduce any child to.

I know its a typical Mumsnet response, but I really think you need to leave this guy!

He's more than just a Twat. He's a thread to your self esteem and development of your children.
