Good on you for getting out. Don't get too discouraged if it does feel a bit harder later on though. I found as my son got older it became harder, particularly with teething & when both of us got sick as I had no-one to help me in the middle of the night. I hope things continue on the up for you.
Wow, EMMA ... i have to admit with somewhat guilt i felt shocked to hear your news as it opened my eyes up that i could 'think' i kind of know people about here on BB & then realise simply because i may not have read a thread or post of someone's circumstances leading up to something so incredibly important happening in their life for all to read ...AND i could so easily miss it. Maybe i'm a little odd in that way as i like to think if there is a long list of members i take an interest in & i do like the sound of them through the website, i can only wish i could be of support if need be, even in the smallest way ... That's just me, a helper I AM, LOL
Anyway, enough of my jibber jabber ... EMMA i want to say i too feel quietly proud from a distant member in cyber space that you have made an amazing decision ... and not only that but YOU DID IT. You found a way out I have been in a similar sounding relationship which was for a very long 8 years though minus child and even on my own i didn't know how to get out (for me i had no family to look to for support) ... and EMMA you did it with a newborn bubba that is so DARN BRILLIANT & COURAGEOUS on the highest level. Give yourself a pat on the back from big old me ... You did GOOD gal
Most important 'thing' you can DO now & you know it, is to NOT turn back as you have gone to so much work to get where you are now ... I for one CONGRATULATE you, that is a life achievement & your sweet little Jade will learn how strong & beautiful her Mama is one very day in the future
Look ahead ... & look forward to many special days ahead in PEACE, ... IYKWIM !!!!!!!!!!!!
