Hi Ash,
I won't go on consoling how you should cope up with domestic issue, I am terrible when it comes to such aspect.

However given that you are suffering with multiple vaginal infections and also placenta previa you need to be careful, at least you care for this baby, don't you. Then stand for this baby and let not mishap repeat again. Before delivering you must be free from all infections so that baby can be born vaginally and otherwise C-section would be an option, which can be very bad if your spouse is not of help.

Be good with medication and take them on time. Drink lots and lots of water and cranberry juice with permission ofyour OB.

Infections you are having should have been gone by now but the fact they are there may be due to they are multiple, candida and enterococcus and require intelligent way of treatment. You must get your swab test done once a 2 weeks to keep on track about vaginal environment.

As long as cervix is closed there is little to none risk for your littleone. Is he/she kicking? if you answer yes then keep track of fetal movements.

Pregnancy can be very emotional due to hormones but try to keep things in perspectives and see whats good for you. Don't think your spouse is not standing for you, may be he has his reasons. I don't know situation and therefore should not say on this part. But I think generally after a mishap each father-to-be should be more careful and otherwise there has to be some reason for not co-operating you. Try to sort that reason out.

Keep in touch with your updates.
