If he yells at you, how will he feel at 2am when the baby has been screaming for 2 hours? If he is highly reactive don't doubt that anything could happen.

You are making the right choice.
I do agree. Which is why I agree he needs therapy. I will not have my child witness anger outbursts. I have BPD. My child will be genetically predisposed to it. I don't want my child to suffer from BPD, so I have to do my utmost best to avoid traumas...especially major trauma. And fetuses can experience trauma too, so I have to keep my stress low while pregnant. That will already be a challenge with my own anxiety.

My pituitary tumor isn't being treated. In fact, none of my hormones are being treated. I just finally saw a endocrinologist and she's doing hormonal tests. My previous primary wouldn't help me because she didn't want me to be pregnant due to my mental health. I got rid of her. It's one thing to advise and suggest, it's another thing to make decisions for me.

And about a baby crying at 2am for 2 hours...we've actually been through that this year. Our neighbor had a baby. Our walls are thin. We survived. My fiance doesn't sleep in the same room as me (hos snoring is horrid). So the crying won't be too loud for him. He isn't highly reactive. He just doesn't know how to handle stress. Yes, a baby will definitely add stress, so he needsnto learn how to deal with it in a healthy manner.
