37 weeks and my boyfriend just said

[brexitisamare]

He will "smash my face in".

He's playing a game online downstairs, fine. But he was screaming at it and it woke me up so I text him asking him to please keep it down.

He text me back telling me to "fuck off".

So I turned the WiFi off (it's in our bedroom). Quite childish of me now I look back but I was absolutely furious at being woken up and told to fuck off when I hadn't actually done anything wrong.

He came banging up the stairs, punched the bedroom door and said "if you ever do that again I will smash this whole house up and I'll smash your face in".

And he turned it back on, slammed the door, said something about wishing we weren't having our baby and now he's back downstairs playing whatever he's playing and I'm sat in bed shaking.

I realise my behaviour here was a bit childish but surely nothing warrants that? I don't think he will come back up or do anything providing I don't touch the internet (I'm not going to move now at all).

He's quite a calm person and I guess I've seen him angry before but nothing like this and he's never threatened me before. I cannot believe that's just happened. I don't even know why I'm posting I just don't know what to do now I'm sat here shaking and trying to calm myself down as I am heavily pregnant with this horrible mans child.

I can't leave because I don't have anywhere to go at this hour and to be honest the thought of having to go downstairs right now petrifies me.

I guess I just need a handhold here 😞

Good luck op.

OP headaches are a key symptom of severe pre eclampsia, along with breathlessness, vision problems, pain below the ribs, vomiting all of which you have.

Call 999 and tell them your symptoms.

You need urgent medical attention.

Good girl your doing the thing you should do take care now!

If there are any issues woth the Taxi then just hit 999 you have every right and need to!

Please make sure you tell them you're high risk for pre-eclampsia.

Wishing you well xxx

Just read that you are going into hospital.

Thank goodness.

As an aside, I can’t believe he’d just have his heavily pregnant partner leave the house at gone midnight and not even question it

Best of luck Brexit

You're 37 weeks pregnant and have chest pain with difficulty in breathing? That needs seeing tonight. Please call back.

Argh, hadn't refreshed the thread before posting. Really glad to hear you're going in to get checked out.

So glad you're going in...good luck. And please do let us know when you're safe in the taxi. Will be thinking about you and hoping it is sorted soon.

I've just seen this and read the full thread. I had high blood pressure with dd1 and chest pain and I was rushed into hospital with a suspected blood clot in my chest! So glad you're going to get checked out. Hope it all goes well. Concentrate on your health first, you can sort out your shitty DP later!

Dear OP do let us know when you are safely on your way to hospital.

Brexit, if there's any difficulty with getting the cab - eg it turns up late / your "D" P gets involved and complicates things - or whatever.
Please just ring 999. The absolute priority is getting you and your baby to hospital ASAP.

hope you are ok OP. Hospital is the best place for you.

You mentioned that you were going to visit your Gran today so I presume that means she lives locally? Can she help?

Do you honestly not have any local friends or family other than your Gran who might help. I'd help out a casual friend in your circumstances. Iyswim

So glad you're going in OP, obviously get your health sorted first but this would be a really good opportunity to talk to someone about what's going on at home too. Hope you're ok and get seen quickly

Hope you are OK OP

Your thread is heartbreaking and I really hope you get support in RL.

You and your baby deserve so much better but I have a feeling you will be just fine, you sound very strong.

Wishing you the best of luck.

I hope you're ok brexitisamare - wishing you strength x

I can't believe you were fobbed off. They are classic signs of pre eclampsia and you are high risk. What is wrong with people.

So glad you're going to the hospital. Forget the fuck wit for now, just you and baby to concentrate on xxx

I hope today he has calmed down. It sounds like he has anger issues, no woman should feel afraid of their partner. If you are walking on shells now just think how much worse it will be when you have the baby to care for.
Please talk to someone you can trust and make plans to keep yourself safe for the future.

Thinking of you and wishing you well. I hope you get seen quickly.

I'm so relieved you've gone in. Very brave. Keep putting you and your baby first x

Glad you've went in to hospital. I hope all is well.

Hope you are ok OP

I've just read the whole thread and was about to shout out 'hospital now' but I've seen you are going. I had PE and bloody hell you must not minimise the symptoms. You need hospital checks and possibly treatment now.

They may admit you and medicate you pending the birth, so pack extra PJs as it could be a few days or weeks in hospital before the birth.

You can tell the midwives in hospital that you aren't safe to go home and they can refer you to agencies for emergency housing.

best of luck and hope all is ok
