I would take that as a personal affront » B2chica

I'm so sorry you're feeling so hurt right now. And I'm very sorry that your husband sounds as though he's being a right [expletive deleted] about this whole thing.

And, as others have said, it would be a life-long tragedy for your daughter if you did any such thing.

You know my first reaction, though? It was this: you have what I most wanted in life and can't have. Hearing that you are considering throwing that away triggered a huge emotional response in me -- I'm crying, I'm angry that you have something I want so badly and don't recognize how precious that is.

So, you want to end your life because you and your husband are having trouble with child-rearing. I want to end my life because I cannot have children and am trapped in a relationship which makes me sicker by the day. (Shades of my childhood.)

Have you called your therapist? Have you called your psychiatrist? Does your psychiatrist have any experience with post partum depression issues? Is there any way you could get your husband into marriage counseling? Instead of leaving your daughter, can you leave your husband -- at least temporarily?

You have other options. I hope that you will see why those other options might be better for all concerned.
