I'm such a mess, I don't know what to do or how to keep myself together in front of the kids!! The last couple of days SO's been really distant with me but I just put it down to the fact that he's working like 9 hour shifts, coming home and working on essays and shit and looking after the kids on top of all that. Anyway, Sunday evening he told me he needed to leave and have some space to think about everything because he doesn't know if this is what he wants anymore. He's gone up to uni and he hasn't text me for 2 days now. I don't know what to feel, or how to think, or how to keep myself together. I really don't understand where all this came from. How do I explain to my almost 2 y/o DD where Daddy is? I don't know how to contact him without it seeming like I'm nagging.

I'm the type where space can be given but you are still a father first, if you don't want to be near your kid or call to check on your kid thats awful. I would call to let him know his LO is asking for hm and maybe talking on the phone would bring comfort,  nagging or not, and leave it up to him.  he shouldn't make the little one feel abandoned.

She's used to him going away as every now and again he has to go back to Uni, but when he's away he rings everyday and its now been 3 days and she's asked where he is. I know DS is only 6 months old but I can tell he knows something too. I just don't understand where its come from :(

That's a dickheaded move. Have y'all been having problems? There is one thing to have a problem with me but don't you dare take it out on our children. If it were me I would have called him up and chewed him out about him leaving the kids with you and not even calling to see them. You don;'t have to talk to each but your kids need their father.

:(  That's not fair to you or the kids. Just give him the space he wants, but be prepared for several posibilities.  *hugs*

Everythings been amazing with us since we found out this time last year that I was pregnant again. We've moved into a new house and everything's been fantastic. I really don't understand any of this. I've text him and asked him to call 'cause Kiah (our DD) wants to talk to him

I can understand needing space, but to leave his kids wondering what happened to him? Asshole!

He may just be stressed from work and doing school work. My husband goes to school from 8am to 10am. home for a nap and then leaves again at 1:45 for work and gets home around 12:30am. Hes stressed out and over tired but he wouldn't just walk out and say he needs space then leave. 

what is UNI?

Sorry, uni is like college (UK mom). I just don't understand where its come from at all. Its so out of the blue. I could understand if he just said he needed a couple of days off, but to just go like he has :'(
