If Somebody Hits Me, Grabs Me By The Head And Pushes Me, Will I Get Charged For Assault If I Step Up Closer To Them With My Hands Behind My Back And Tell Them To "hit Me Again"?

Location: Indiana My girl got aggressive with me after a conversation got heated where I was sitting at the foot of the bed and she was laying normally at the top. She told me not to point, even though it was at a distance, I pointed anyway, as is completely my right to make hand gestures while I speak. She hit me, I immediately called out the abuse, and then she lunged forward grabbing me by the head and my hair, taking me off the bed, which then I got up in her grill a bit with my hands behind my back and told her to hit me again. She was already screaming beyond any level of reasonability, and continued to hit and kick me. Then when I tried to explain to her how not okay that was, she tried to tell me she got aggressive because I had already gotten in her face, which is beyond untrue, as again, she lunged at me, holding me by the top of my head, and physically removing me from her bed. This is a shared room where we sleep and kicking me out saying it's her space doesn't fly with me as I pay all the bills in the house and work over 50 hours a week to maintain. Can somebody give me advice as to what the hell to do? This girl is pregnant with my child and I uprooted my whole life and moved across the country to be here for her...
