Baby born, separated, WH moving overseas for OW

Any tips on how not to be angry in front of them?

let's see...I would just breathe deeply and slip away to scream obscenities in my car...I didn't even vent to friends and family!

Piano, I doubt 100% that your H hates you although I can see why you might feel that way considering his "coldness."

I am glad you asked him via email about his lack of inquiry about your beautiful daughter!

Something I realized the other day or so was that part of adjusting to the loss of our marriage and my hope and the loss of stbxh was figuring out my "new" identity as a single mom. Once I started to figure out that life, I felt some kind of relief.

I say this on your thread because although it is hopefully temporary, I recommend trying to set up your "single mom" life. Mentally, first, and then try to think of all the things you and your D will do and picture doing them without your H. I just lived in the "now" and it helped me survive limbo, but once I finally started to envision S and I alone, doing things together, and finding my single parents group, it felt better. Not awesome, not wonderful, just better.

So that is my advice for taking care of YOU...set up your life with D and make plans, goals, etc. I am not saying to give up hope because I am not convinced it's over for you two. But just having Plan B in place sooner than later will hopefully get you through. And don't forget- the first 3 months of motherhood are the hardest! It does get easier!!!!! (((hugs)))
