For context, my partner has full custody of his child (6F) and I am currently coming up 5 months pregnant, and every time I stay with him at the weekend I sleep on the sofa.

His daughter still sleeps in his bed with him, he has tried in the past to get her into her own bed but given up multiple times and just let her sleep in there. This evening, obviously my pregnancy hormones have got the better of me, and I started crying when he said he was going up to bed. Don’t get me wrong, he’s a very supportive and great boyfriend, and currently because I’ve been spending a lot of time with him and being the hormonal mess women are when they’re pregnant, I’m heavily reliant on comfort from him when I’m sad.. he asked what was wrong and I just straight up said “I don’t like sleeping without you anymore.” He gave me some hugs etc and said that he can’t do anything about it at the moment, because it’s currently 1.30am and his daughter is asleep. Which, granted, is fair enough…but I’m starting to think do I even bother coming over here now at the weekend just to sleep on his shitty sofa while I’m getting more and more heavily pregnant? I just worry this isn’t going to change at all, and I’m fed up. Anyway, he went upstairs after I said to just leave, whilst I was in floods of hormonal tears…so we currently aren’t talking and I’m wide awake wondering why I’m even here right now. Am I being unreasonable? A hormonal idiot? Do I apologise to him? This entire situation has consumed me this evening and I don’t know how to go about talking to him about this anymore without it putting pressure on our relationship…am I the asshole for being upset over this situation?
