I know what I would reply if someone else where to write this, ltb, don't look back. But unfortunately it is never really that simple is it? I've written this post a thousand times in my head but I'm wary of going into too much detail.

The fact of the matter is that I said no and wasn't listened to. I said no many times in fact. I'm 13 weeks pp where I suffered a 3rd degree tear and things are still not right down there. We tired once a few weeks a go to have sex and it was too painful. He was caring, considerate, and generally what you would expect from the person you marry and make a family with. This time he wasn't any of that. I was asleep when he started, I woke and repeatedly said no, it hurt when he penetrated me and I told him so. He didn't listen so I gave up and took it. So now what? I spent a day in shock and upset, today wasn't much better. I don't understand how someone who was so loving, who still ?acts? so loving could hurt me so. Watching him with dc is breaking my heart. I want to take my baby away from him where he could never hurt or disappoint them as he has done me.

But I have no where to go, no one to put me up and no funds to leave. Maternity pay doesn't pay that much. I don't know if I can tell anyone, if I say it out loud I can never take it back, it cements what he did as fact and everyone would know. If I ignore it, I know I can't forgive but I could carry on like it didn't happen. But right now I don't want him to speak to me let alone kiss me goodbye. I really don't know what to do. Do I confront him, make him admit it to out loud. Would that change anything? Fuck sake.

Hello, sorry I'm still here. Thanks for your kind words and thoughts. I'm okay. If I'm honest I have just let life tick on. Dc takes up 99% of my time and energy which I think is rather useful for the time being.

I have no updates or plans to report back to you all I'm afraid. Thank you again for your comments, it's good to know you're all here Smile

You're probably in a kind of shock and sometimes just keeping busy helps with that until you are able to process further. Also, there is plenty to keep busy with, with a new baby!

I have no advice or experience but just hoped and hope you are ok or kind of ok anyway. Flowers
