I just beat up my husband while he was holding our baby daughter.

I’m been pissed because I hurt my arm and can’t do much. I think it’s a nerve.

He has been staying up late, pushing his body to limits. He drove 5 hrs so I could see a pregnant friend for her birthday. He was fighting sleep. Luckily he didn’t crash. Then he drove another 5 hours back. I missed my cousin’s daughter’s birthday and hubby caught me saying that I wished they changed the birthday party date so I could attend it.

He stayed up all Monday night and took the brithday present 45 minutes away to her family and returned the car. He then cleaned our daughter’s bottles.

Fast forward to today, he was up again all night claiming to do homework for his Thursday night class. When I woke up he was up at 9:30AM and I know I said “Seriously?” He said he was waiting for the laundromat in our apartment to open at 10 so he could do laundry. I told him he needed to go to sleep.

He woke up at 8PM and I bitched at him that dishes weren’t done and laundry wasn’t done and that I couldn’t do it because my arm kept hurting. He tried to state his case and he was holding our daughter. I said that after Christmas I’d give him a divorce. He came into the bathroom as I was brushing my teeth and asked me to repeat what I said. Instead, I hit him in front of our daughter. He shielded her and I hit him over and over saying I hated him, to “f*** off” and so on. I grabbed other things and hit him as he layed bent over like a coat hanger, clothes basket, and the floor steamer.

Next thing I know as I walked to the bedroom, he came in and said “I don’t care that you hit me, but you will not hit me in front of our daughter!” I looked and there she was in his arms with a scared look on her face. He was bruised and bleeding.

I’m so stressed about being a mom, Christmas, money…and I took my anger out on him in front of our daughter. I don’t care that I hit him because it’s not spousal abuse because only when a man hits a woman it is that. He never hit me or layed a hand on me. But I feel bad that I hit him in front of our daughter.

We are going to my parents house next Tuesday and staying for a month. I hope his wounds heal up and if they don’t what he will say.

Also, if he does leave me, how will I raise our daughter alone? Hitting him just added more stress on me.
