You haven't said how you're coping with early motherhood? Have the events of the last few months affected your relationship with your daughter?
In a way its lucky he's shown what he is this early. There's a beautiful life ahead of you without having to cope with an A in your daily life.
I also believe maybe he thought she would save him. The first two months were pretty magical actually. He wasps great with her and so kind and loving towards me. Then he just snapped.
Coping has its ups and downs. I love my daughter so much and I think if I didn’t have her I would probably go crazy. She’s the best distraction, and she really has been a relatively easy baby (sleeps well etc).
