I have just had my first baby 3weeks ago and im getting no support from my over half, now or through out the pregnancy. He enjoys a good drink but he cant just have one glass of wine he has 3 bottles, once he has had a drink he will do anything to get another and i just cant stand him when hes drunk. He wont give up alchol no matter how much i ask him to and its making me miserable. When hes not drinking things are great but hes drinking in excess about once or twice a week, should i just put up with it and get on or leave him and move on??

I'm also glad to hear you have come to a decision - it sounds like it's the right one. If you're ever feeling a bit wobbly did you see this recent thread about the effects of a Dad's drinking on his children? It's sad but I think it's worth a read to remind yourself what you need to protect your DD (and yourself) from.

Good luck :)
