Hi. I'm not sure where to start so I am sorry if this is long winded...
I found out I am pregnant about a month ago after actively ttc so I am about 6 weeks now..DF and I have been together for 15 years this year and we have a daughter who is 6 and has autism. My partner doesn't cope very well on his own with our daughter and has little patience..yesterday daughter couldn't find the sellotape in the drawer so my partner went into the kitchen and said to her "it's there are you thick, thicko!" and then tonight he has said things to her like "stop being a numpty" and "I'm going to strangle you" sometimes it's not what he says it's how nasty he says it so I then have to shout at him to stop saying nasty things to her! Tonight I have asked him why he can't cope with her and he just says I can't! So i said we might have to reconsider having another if he cant cope! I work part time and normally when my partner is off work daughter is in school so he only has to deal with her in the school holidays..my partner works long shifts and a lot of weekends so most of the time I am on my own with her for over 12 hours and I cope! I am worried about how having another baby will affect our relationship and is it strong enough to survive it with all the stress
