I was a hot mess. My family used connections to get me into a kick butt attorney at the front of the line... no waiting 8 weeks. My mother dragged me in and paid the retainer. Deep down I knew it was the right thing to do but I was soooooo beaten down by XH at home. Screaming... yanking me out of bed how this was going to play out and how we would use his "free" atty thru work and it would be amicable... my head was a mess, all while my heart was trying to figure out how things got so broken.
I got my ducks in a row. I was prepared.
Thank you, KitCat. I think that is the gist of what everyone is telling me. Prepare for the worst. And yes, I can still move money to different accounts as long as I will be frank and open about disclosing it when it comes to that.

My heart goes out to you!!!! Pregnancy is tough enough. You should not having to be dealing with this too. Girl, get yourself an atty and get everything you are entitled too... bust his fantasy that he has going on in his head.
Thank you, KitCat. It is hard. I barely have enough time in the day to even think about pregnancy now with work and a toddler to take care of, and this separation to add on top of everything. Whatever does not kill you I guess.
