I am 7 weeks postpartum with a 35 week premature baby boy. I also have a 3 year old son at home full time and a 17 yr old and a 11 yr old in school. I currently have no emotional support at home. My fiancé works full time during the week and thinks since I currently don’t have a job and haven’t since April 2017 (because it was not worth me working because he made more money per hour than me) and raising 2 boys doesn’t count as a job and I use him financially because he pays $800 rent to my parents who’s house we live in (my parents do not nor do we live with them) and rent independently.And in addition never have to worry about getting evicted because we cannnit pay our rent. He accuses me of taking his money because I don’t have to pay my parents rent but he does.,, we have 2 kids together and I have 2 kids separately but my daughter is 11 and we have been together since she turned 3yrs old that’s 8 years. I had my first son with him January 2016 while he was locked up in county and then transferred to a rehab he week our son was born and came hone May 4th and the. Got locked up again September 8th 2016 and was transferred to rehab in October and came home April 12, 2017. I again got pregnant and delivered our son a month early in January 2019. He has been on drug court since April 30th 2014 and will max out April 30th 2019. My anxiety is through the roof thinking about what could happen when he gets off of drug court the only thing that keeps me sane is my 2 baby boys that need me and depend on me no matter what happens.. I guess I don’t have a question but I am asking for reassurance and support for what ever comes my way

Hi I would remind your partner that taking care of his children is a a full time job in itself, indeed I expect you work far more hours than he does. I would go away for a few days on your own and see how he copes.

As a father he is working to support his family and you do more than your fair share! It is not HIS money but his families so don't let him run you down like this. It sounds like he is locked up quite a lot and you have to cope without him anyway. x
