He beats me

The father of my child is staying with me on house arrest.  Whenever he gets mad he beats me. Not hitting my stomach he doesn't leave bruises or marks but it's causes pain. He is also verbally abusive.  My question is alot of times he slams me on the bed and that's the only thing I'm really concerned by. Is that harmful to my son? He can beat me all he wants just as long as my baby is OK. I only have 9 days til my due date.

No one needs and deserves a man like that...if you are afraid of him, tell a friend or a family member for help and call a police on him. Leave him for your sons sake...

I will never understand situations like this! He's wrong for beating you and your wrong for tolerating it!! Not trying to be mean, but your baby should be ur first priority!! Staying with someone who beats you says you are just as selfish as he is!! I can't imagine what ur thinking or dealing with, I just know I would NEVER put up with a man hitting me, or ever give h a chance to hit my baby!!! You are the voice for ur baby, that precious innocent baby can't speak up. You are responsible!! If anything does happen to your baby, it would be on your shoulders!! Don't give him the opportunity to harm your baby or yourself again!! Be strong and do what's right!! He's a loser who deserves nothing from you but a kick out the door! How he is treating you is not love! Show your baby love by sending the jerk packing! Sorry if I seem harsh, but I had to voice my astonishment at your post!

i don't think you know for sure that he wont hit the baby. he slams you, what do you think he will do when baby is crying all night? he'll get mad, and who will he slam then? or shake, or throw because they are so tiny?
he has no compassion, no respect and no love for his child. you are more than a punching bag. you have created a baby, you are a goddess and miracle worker. you are a mother and your only job is to take care of your child and show them how to live. is letting their father beat their mother a way of living? it is not!
you may feel right now that it is okay if he hits you to sacrifice yourself for your child. but 1) your child will see this and follow suit 2) who says he wont start on the child when the child makes him mad?
you didn't do anything to deserve being hit and yelled at. if he can't manage his anger then that is his problem, not yours.
don't be a martyr cause nothing good will come of it. protect yourself and your child.
if i were you i wouldn't go back to that place after delivery. ask your parents if you can move in and call the cops if he shows up.

This absolutely has to be a lie this is way too discusting to post something like this especially when your pregnant. Have respect for you as a wwomen and that beautiful creation in your belly. Women like you deserve to be called DYFS on. You should be ashamed of what your saying. God bless your child
