Ok brief backround, i have been with my husband 4 yrs, 2 children and another (huge surprise)on the way. Now it has always been rocky from the start and i feel like i shouldnt have married him but, i always thought we'd be able to work it out. Anyway things have finally come to blows when h decided we were gonna have an arguement in the car, screech onto the rndabout with the children in the car and confirm he wants to punch my lights out!
So ive made a decision to separate, but with a new mortgage and nowhere for either my h or I to go i dont know what to do. I dont know what im entitled to or how best to handle things for the sake of the children.
Ive thought about co-habiting still until the house is done up and we can sell or until after the baby comes.
HELP! its such a mess

First thing to do is see a solicitor - you can get a free half hour's advice with some. You need to know your rights re the house etc.

Then think about whether you can manage to co-habit. What does he think about the idea? Does he agree to a separation? Can you live together but seperately without fighting? A friend of mine did manage to share the house with her ex and 4 children for 3 years, but it was really hard and she had no private life. You should contact the council re housing, register on their lists.

Yes seek legal advice but also give yourself time to make the right choice. Try not to rush into anything you may regret later - you have time on your side.

Hope you are ok though it sounds awful.

Take care
