Do I leave ?

My baby is 4 months old now and for the last 2/4months my partner and I have just been constant arguing, I’m genuinely just feeling really low and sad at the moment and do not know what to do at this point! Anyone else in same boat?

It's really normal to be in the room mate phase, hang in there and don't make any life altering decisions just yet

He probably also feels this way. Have you tried asking to sit down and try talk things through? Try make time for you, his own time then your own time . See if you guys cant get in a better place x

I’d have a talk with him and if in 6months nothing improves maybe you could do counseling. Also, I will say in a yr or so if it’s still this way it might be time to consider leaving. Right now it is because you are both navigating how to do life with a little baby.

No, you sit and have an adult conversation to try to get to the root cause of the problem. It's very normal in the first year of having a baby to feel like this, me and my partner have been arguing over silly things, but we know we love each other and don't want to separate

@Jenny I said to him I am finding it hard atm with the baby because I am the one doing everything completely and when I ask him to settle her he gives up after 30seconds and tried explaining that he still has somewhat of normality and he said that’s part of being a mum and working doesn’t count. He also asked to have some of my wine and I said no it’s mine (he brought it for me as I never get to have any as I don’t drink much where I BF) and you have had a lot of drinks in the last week so you don’t really need it and he kicked off saying I have no right to say that to him and then he went on about how he does everything and I don’t compromise with anything. I feel like I have really tried to talk about how I’m feeling but it always gets flipped around and I’m the bad guy. To be honest I feel so lonely and I don’t want to leave him we have been together since school over 6 years ago but I’m finding things really hard.

I think he is sounding really selfish with those comments! Your defo likely to get different opinions when people actually know whats going on in the relationship. Think will change as the baby gets holder. Having kids is hard on relationships. You just got to find out if you love and want to be with each other minus all these arguments. Is it worth fighting for?
