So confused

I'm feeling so confused about my relationship right now!
For the past couple of months I have felt so disconnected from my partner, which has led me to doubt my love for him.
We have a 15 month old son whom we both adore and he is a great dad.
We have been together for 8 years but didn't live together until we got pregnant and always led very separate lives only seeing each other 2-3 times a week. This suited us both fine however now I doubt whether our relationship works as it is now, living together with a child.
Also some background, a lot has happened over the past few years to me, my brother passed away very suddenly a couple of months before I got pregnant, I had a very traumatic birth and my son was diagnosed with cystic fibrosis at 2 weeks old.
I feel like I haven't had a minute to sit back and think in so long and now I do I don't feel happy at all in my relationship.
So confused and unsure of what to do xx

I know it’s not what you want to hear, but only you can decide what you want to do.
Your decision needs to be what is best for you, because you being happy will lead to your child being happy.
You don’t necessarily have to split up, you can consider a few nights away as respite, you might miss him more than you realise and want to stay together, or really appreciate being apart and decide you want to end things.

Hope you are ok xx
