Through her pregnancy she used to be violent, constantly hitting me when we disagree over certain things, views and goes as fars as throwing items in the apartment at me. I survived her days of pregnancy without having law enforcement involved...Three weeks after she had the baby, she threw some items at me, and physically hitting me while I was holding the baby. I called authorities and now we have a no contact order...What should I do as fars custody my lovely son is concern. I am worried if I continued living with her she might end up hurting one of us when she gets mad. Please help..
