Baby dad drama

I’m just so angry right now. My boyfriend went through our savings on drinks with his friends, even though he knew how much I wanted to move into this cottage. We’ve been trying to save for two months, and every paycheck, he just blows it without a second thought about me or our baby. I’ve been the one buying everything for our son—clothes, play gyms, tummy time stuff, newborn toys—all ready for his arrival in June. But what has my boyfriend contributed? Nothing. Yet he can drop £600 in two days on a trip to Scotland with his mates. Since I found out how much he spent, I can’t even look at him without feeling rage. We had a heated argument, and I just wanted him out of the room, so I grabbed his stuff and put it outside. I know that wasn’t the right way to handle it, but I’m just so fed up. He never checks in on how I’m doing or asks if I’m okay—I’m always the one thinking about his feelings and making sure he’s happy, but when it comes to me, there’s nothing in return. He acts like a man-child, and I’m done. Even my own mother sides with him, telling me I need to be more considerate of his feelings. But why doesn’t anyone hold him accountable for stepping up as a father? It feels like she cares more about him than me, even though he’s not her child. At this point, I just want to move out and focus on my son. He can stay here with my mum for all I care—I’m done trying to make it work when he won’t put in any effort.

That’s so selfish and I’d be fuming as well, if he can’t step up now when you’re about to have a baby then when will he? especially as he doesn’t seem to be remorseful either. Definitely give him an ultimatum I.E you control the savings etc if he’s not willing to budge then have a long think about things x

Update- He just came into the house and slapped me across the face five times. Then he grabbed me off the bed and threw me onto the floor before storming out with the car keys. What hurts even more is that my mother gave him the keys—knowing full well that he put his hands on me.

@Mi💓 I don’t want anything to do with him now that he has hit me . He can cry to the courts I’m not bringing my baby near him.

I’m so sorry, I hope you’ve called the police don’t let him get away with that he’s absolutely disgusting. As for your mum why is she defending him over you? look at what it’s lead to now?. I’d 100% do the same in regards to cutting contact with him, im here if you need to speak at all x

Oh girl I feel so sorry for you that is so messed up! I would ditch him and your mum! You and your baby comes first! X

Don't let him get away with that! Make a police report and get a restraining order. That will hopefully keep him out of the house as long as you're there. Sending prayers for you and baby 🙏🏿

File a police report and cut them both off. At the end of the day ppl like that shouldn’t be around your kids. And with mom like that who needs enemies.
