Hi, I haven’t trusted my husband for a while and things seem to be getting worse- if we were to separate-
how do I start getting the ball rolling with child care arrangements and things? I can’t really afford to move out as on maternity leave still till next month so legal fees would be expensive- I just need to start getting things in order?
what do I need to do first?

many thanks 🙏🏻

Huge hugs to you, first.

Is he the type that you can talk to?

If not, one of my suggestions would be to get in contact with Gingerbread. Another suggestion would be to visit a solicitor for their free half hour. Find one you feel comfortable with. Make sure, however, that you have a think about what you want to ask them first so that you get as much use put of the half hour as possible.
