Feeling alone at 30 weeks

Does anyone else feel alone? I'm married with another child from a previous marriage.  My husband is always upset or yelling at me because of things that going on in his job or dealing with his other child. I'm trying to be very understanding and not emotional but I feel like I've been alone through this whole pregnancy. I'm trying to help him in every way I can but my stress level is getting higher. I don't want it to effect the baby........i tried telling him how I feel but he says everything is my fault. Any advice? Sorry to vent

Honestly I feel no matter how much support we get and dont get, no matter how much we know other women are in our shoes, we are always lonely to an extent.  It can ne heartbreaking sometimes.  Some days are great, others arent. Its all alnost over.

I suggest marriage counseling. It works really well. My husband has been married twice before. I know both of his ex wives and, honestly, they'd be able to drive a saint insane. For the longest time he would do the same thing to me as your husband and I would get so depressed because it was like he wouldn't even give me a chance to prove I'm not like them. I finally told him that he would either find us a counselor or I wanted divorce papers drawn up on the spot. I refused to continue being in an abusive relationship.  It really woke him up. After talking to the counselor for a couple of months there's been a huge change. Our marriage is much stronger and he finds more productive ways to take out his work anger than on me. He even attempts to talk out his problems with me now.

I am so sorry.  He should not be taking work out on you and definitely shouldn't be saying its your fault. I wish I had some advice on how to get thru to him the stress he is putting on you.  Do you have friends or family near by you can talk to about this? I would reach out to people around you as they will step up and help you with baby if he isn't.
