Geez --so sorry to read what has happened to you. Right now, all you can do is think of your baby and his or her future. i know it hurts to be in love and to be treated like rubbish. And i'm sorry he's abusing you with words and also that he hit you too? You know, there is no easy or simple answer to these men (as i have been involved with a muslim/moroccan man) and if you can't get the courage to leave him, then you need to learn how to stay out of his way, so to speak, until you can get yourself to leave him. You know, its like this with any kind of love. How can you walk away from love? Until you realize that YOU are the only one who is doing the loving, you won't be able to move on. All over this world men abuse women, and there is no easy answer. You need to pray. I prayed a lot to help me get through some tuff times with my man. And i did get the strength to move on. But it won't happen overnight. You need to decide if you are willing to stay and put up with this man, or if you want to move on for your own safety and sanity and the baby's too. It's really all up to you. Maybe try group therapy? Or a good friend or someone to encourage you OUT of there.
Hope you find your pathway soon. Keep us all posted on your baby.
