I would suggest to repair relationship. It may be painful but will go a long way.

Nothing to stop you saving some money as cash from your buying and selling.

Have seen this and other things advised on this forum on the many “you go girl, get what you can” threads.

Horrible advice. Regardless of whether it is a man or a woman asking. Especially when there are children involved. 

Get a consent order sorted. But figure out and ensure you both meet your child's needs first.

To add some actual legal advice to this thread, default is that matrimonial assets are split 50/50 but you haven't given us details of ages, income, duration of relationship etc.

Either way, putting some aside now does nothing, it's still considered a matrimonial asset. If it does work out, try and figure things out and get a consent order. Just because she may or may not be primary carer it doesn't mean she gets the house automatically, it's just that the needs of the minor children are considered as a factor as to how to split the assets. 

And don't forget the pensions!
