Hello, first time posting so please be gentle. Smile
Im currently 25 weeks pregnant with my second child. My now ex partner kicked me in the back,locked me in the house and took my phone off me on saturday night.
The poilce were called but not enough evidence to charge him.
Im scared about where i go from here, im scares of having to bring two children up on my own. Or do i forgive and forget for the sake of my children? Im so lost and my emotions are all over the place.
I dont really know what i am asking for, just some support and to see if anyone has been through it all before.

I've not had the physical abuse, but I also separated from the father of my DS when I was only 9 weeks pregnant. My DS is now 18 months and we are happy as ever. Whatever you do, do NOT go back to this guy. You will put yourself and your dc in great risk. It's scary but you CAN do it and you will! Be strong Thanks

Isn't it scarier to think of what that kick might have resulted in? And what about the next kick? I'd pick being a single parent any day, and yes I've been one also had a violent partner. Look to who could support you eg family, friends, local groups. You can do it to keep your children safe and well. Good luck.

For the sake of your children leave and never go back to him, do you want them growing up thinking that is what a relationship is like?

Don't go back. You can do this!

Forgive and forget for the sake of your children?
Bring your kids up in a house where abuse and violence is normal? Let them grow into adults seeing this and possibly taking it forward into their own relationships as either victim or perpetrator?
For the sake of your children you have to have a real look at what you are suggesting....
There are so many places you can get help and support. You can leave and you can be happy and safe.
Please do not put yourself or your children in the way of this man.
