I’m so sorry, you need to reach out to a helpline for real that does not sound good for your mental health at all! And obviously your baby will see you upset and the son and fiance situation sounds awful. Can you talk to your fiane about how you feel? And sit with your stepson maybe like i have no advice with that but wow :(

Yes tried talking to my fiance he just says I over think react and my step son Iv tried to talk work things out but nothing changed

You are pregnant mama, but your feelings are still valid. Try drinking chamomile tea and relax. Once you feel relaxed don’t take your stepson personally. He is a child and you are an adult. Remember that part! Make sure he is doing what he needs to do, is fed and he is clean. Don’t do anything for him. He is 9. Help him with whatever he needs help with. Be stern. #1 he doesn’t have to like you, he has to respect you. #2 respect the child #3 set boundaries #4 give them time #5 expectations! #6 dont force relationships #7 call them out respectfully without attacking them #8 live with integrity(never heard it) but kids are master observers! Note: he sees how his dad treats you and children reflections of their parents so if his father isn’t showing you respect then you know why the child is not. Not the child’s fault at all. Advice: none, I don’t have any. Just what I researched.
