Good luck OP you have done the right thing.

username1234mum · 18/11/2016 18:21

You've all be so lovely thank you and thank god for mumsnet I really wasn't going to call the police today.

I never thought the man I fell madly in love with,would one day chock me and hit me especially when I'm 3months pregnant with his child.

I would love to see his face when the police show to his work.

Are you with family now? Expect to hear a sob story from him or his family. If he is told by police not to contact you you must report him every time he does.
Have the police advised how to get a restraining order? You should look to obtain one.

43percentburnt · 18/11/2016 20:44

Sorry op it's a non molestation order. Here's a link www.ncdv.org.uk/non-molestation-order/

Trooperslane · 18/11/2016 20:50

Well done op. You are either so so so much more than this. Xxxx

SpiritedLondon · 18/11/2016 20:58

If he's been arrested he will probably / possibly be bailed pending medical evidence or photos. ( he could possibly be charged and kept in custody until court which may be Monday). He will be bailed to a different address and will have conditions not to contact you or come to the address. If he does contact you either directly or indirectly he is in breach and you should report it to the officer in charge of your case.... Unless urgent in which case call 999. The police should have made a referral to social services re the children born and unborn so you may be contacted by a social worker....don't worry about this they are there to ensure their safety. They are not judging you. Good luck....you're stronger than you think. X

username1234mum · 18/11/2016 21:33

The police haven't told me about restraining order or what to do if contacts me they just they will arrest him and let me know what's going to happen next.im at my parent's house at the moment,I haven't told my parent yet but told my sister everything he done to me over the years and she can't believe i kept it to my self.

I feel so relieved I really thought I would worry about how things will work out with me being pregnant and all but I feel hopeful.

He put me down so many times and made me feel like shit but that comes to an end now.

username1234mum · 18/11/2016 21:37

HughLauries. Yes the first time he hit me was 2months after we got married because I went against my family to marry him I didn't tell anyone about the abuse.

Well done for making the call, you absolutely did the right thing.

RepentAtLeisure · 18/11/2016 21:40

Fantastic that you called your family. People always have stuff going on, but that doesn't mean they wouldn't want to help in this kind of situation.

AlabasterSnowball · 18/11/2016 21:43

Wishing you stregth 1234 stay with your family and stay strong, when you start to wobble thng of your little ones. Flowers

Barnes79 · 18/11/2016 21:45

Well done OP for taking that step.

If he contacts you, I'd suggest you call the police and tell them. If he turns up call them.

Tell your mum, she'll want to help and will no doubt be understanding, but just a bit shocked.

All the best for you and your baby. You'll both have a better future without him.

Stay strong.

IwillrunIwillfly · 18/11/2016 21:45

Just wanted to add well done to you op for being strong and doing what's best for your dc by calling the police and telling your family. Keep that hopeful feeling no matter what comes your way and keep strong!

forumdonkey · 18/11/2016 21:46

Well done OP, you are stronger than you think. You've done the right thing but please don't ever go back to him.

AdoraBell · 18/11/2016 21:47

Well done OP you have absolutely done the right thing for your child, your unborn baby and yourself. Remember that when he starts whining/ threatening. And when he does report every contact to the police.
