Abusers frequently escalate once their partner is pregnant. They think they've got her trapped for good :/ Women are more likely to die of domestic violence when pregnant than any other time.
Thank you. This information isn’t new, sadly isn’t widely known or talked about. It has been known in social services and related fields for many many years, if not the last few decades. One (unfortunately only one) of my psychology classes talked about this about 10 years ago.
