F/U to Support post!

I told my doctor about the fight between X and I at my appointment today. Thankfully one of my closest friends was there and was able to help me through it. I started crying but was able to tell him what happened. He said that it's a good thing I got out while I could and that I need to keep LO and I as distant as I can. He also said that I should bring it up to my midwife in K-town (the town I'm going to to wait for birth) so we can plan for what will happen during delivery.

I went through a stage a few weeks ago (maybe two weeks?) where I was desperately missing X and wanted him back etc etc and now I just feel like I need to be stronger than that. Both for LO and for myself. My doctor said that if he could do it to me, he could just as easily harm LO and that men who have a history of violence tend to continue on that path.

I'm very glad to say that I finally feel finished with that a-hole and that I will provide as safe a place for LO as I can.

Now I just need to find a good time to sit down and have a talk with my mom. I'll probably ask if she wants to go get coffee (smoothie for me. Wink ) later today... Smile

  • Glad it went so well.  Sometimes telling people (such as your doctor) about abuse will make you stronger because you will hold yourself accountable more because more people know.  I am also happy you are out of this situation.  Stay strong, you and LO deserve a better life!
