I got pregnant by someone who was in a relationship and I do not want his fiance around my child: Advice?

My husband cheated on me when I was 2 months pregnant with our son. When I found out, we separated and then he started dating his now wife when I was 7 months pregnant. There was nothing I could do and when he got visitation rights after the baby, his girlfriend was there at his house with my son, and I just had to learn to deal with it. 8 years later we get along pretty well, his wife and I

I guess I’m confused as to why you are taking this out on the other woman. Seems like neither of you knew about the other. And the fact remains that those other kids are related to your child. I can understand being concerned with who is around your kid but I just don’t understand the extreme negative feelings for this other chick

It’s not her fault or her kid’s fault that he’s a piece of :poop:. Technically, they do have a sibling on the way and they should have the privilege of knowing the baby. Why punish her and her kids? If anything, I’d get a No Contact order against your baby daddy because you wouldn’t be having a baby with him if he had been honest. He full out admitted that he used you to hurt his ex.

No you’re selfish. You don’t keep kids away from their siblings. You’re bringing harm to your child by doing so and they will resent you in the future. Now if you get a vibe that they may be mistreated or harmed that’s wayyyy different but you’re being petty. You’re about to be a mother. You gotta leave the childishness to your child. You didn’t know about her. He should be the one who’s embarrassed not you. You had no knowledge

You are insanely selfish

 and sorry not sorry but you are extremely bitter for being the other woman. You can not control who is around his child when the child is with him. And no judge would grant you a no contact order because of jealousy. I suggest some counseling before the child is here to help you deal with your misplaced anger.

Did anyone actually read what you said? Or did I somehow misread it? The comments here are confusing.

No you’re not being selfish. The child of the other woman is not biologically his. So it’s not your childs sibling. Although I don’t think you should be rude with her because him being a cheater is not her fault or yours, you’re also not obligated to have a relationship with her or her child. Period. He’s saying him and her aren’t together so, no, you do NOT have to allow her around YOUR child. She’s his ex and has no biological children with him she has no business trying to be a part of your child’s life.

Selfish and immature :woman_shrugging:t2:

I am not going to attack you like everyone else on this thread because I actually understand not wanting someone you don’t know around your child and I also understand the anger. It doesn’t seem she has done anything wrong so I would say give her a chance. In your post you said you are only 10 weeks pregnant. You have 30 weeks to go. I suggest taking that time to get to know this woman. This will either prove your point or alleviate your worries. You may bond with this woman and if not, you may see she isn’t a bad person and may actually be good for your child. At the end of the day, unless she is dangerous, you won’t be able to do much about it. My best advice is to try to make this as easy as you can by keeping an open mind. You will also set a wonderful example for your child by doing so. Good luck!!

Considering it’s not the children’s fault on who their parents are, they deserve to know who their siings are. I understand that he lied to you but it’s now time to be adult and do what’s right by your child. Did you know he had 2 other children? If so, were you expecting yall to be together and forget about his other children or were you expecting you all to be cumbyaing and his other children be around you when visiting “daddy”?

Anyone else confused, she says his fiancĂ© but towards the end she says they are not together. 1st congratulations on your baby, they are a blessing from God. If he chooses to be in your baby’s life, that’s wonderful but you cannt control who he has around baby ( when he has baby with him) if he is with his fiancĂ© I would try to get to know her and get along with her for your child’s sake. Remember if they are together she will probably be the one taking more care of your child when the child is with baby daddy, you shouldn’t be mad at her, she probably didn’t know about you when you and baby daddy were having sex, so don’t take it out on her. You can only be mad at the guy he’s the one who cheated on his fiancĂ© with you!

You’re being selfish. I’m sorry. We are adults now. Not 19 and baby mommas. Do you want to be a baby momma or a mother?

These comments make me sick. She didn’t know another woman was still involved and he slept with her for revenge on his fiance but she’s a homewrecker? Ends up pregnant NOT KNOWING ABOUT THE OTHER WOMAN and shes not supposed to be upset about the possibility of having to immediately share her baby with a woman she didn’t even know was involved with your child’s father, but she’s selfish? The woman on woman judgment on this page is giving me a headache wtf ever happened to supportive words even if we aren’t exactly right? And she’s the one that needs to grow up? If you don’t agree or just wanna tell her how much of a homewrecker she is or how she needs to keep her legs closed must be perfect fucking people who’ve never made a mistake in their lives and ya need to just move on without commenting. She said she needed advice on how to handle the situation she didn’t ask if she was WRONG or IMMATURE but you know what ALOT OF YOU ARE!

Chantelle Black sounds similar to your situation

Woman up and TELL HER. If you honestly didn’t know she was in the picture then you need to TELL HER. She did NOTHING wrong and you want to be that way towards her? Screenshots and everything proving your side of things.
Also NEVER keep siblings from each other. Selfish.

You are going to be part of this dude (the father of your unborn childs) life and so is his ex. I feel like you are a woman scorned. Get some counseling. Also pregnancy hormones don’t help. Why deprive your child of it’s siblings? Just get a grip and move on. One day you will find someone and want to introduce your little to him
just live in harmony

Very selfish
 It seems you’re more jealous of the other lady and her kids than anything
 Sorry not sorry
 but you need to grow up and get over it. Be glad they want to be a part of your child’s life if anything. Yeah he sucks by lying to you
 But you should direct your feelings towards him and not her
 I hope you get over and thru this soon and do what’s best for your baby and yourself and not isolate the father put of the picture because of this

So it kinda seems like he is a toxic dude and in all reality he doesn’t have to be there when you have the baby and he doesn’t have to sign the birth affidavit. Which in turn he will have no rights. But for you it means no child support or help from him.

Why don’t you want her around your baby? You said a lot about how bad of a guy he is but not much about her and why she needs to stay away. If she will treat your child rite be thankful. A lot of children don’t get a good step parent. Please don’t judge her for being with him judge her for how she is with your child. If she will treat your child wrong then yes keep her away. But don’t let your feelings about her drive a wedge between her and a child she may or may not be around forever.

Just give it time, in the end you might end up liking her. I’m really good friends with my husband’s ex wife. We do it for our kids and put our kids first. Sure it wasn’t like that in the beginning but we are adults and can make it work for our children. It’s important for the children to know their siblings.

I say forget them. It’s not her baby and she has no right to it. This is your baby and always will be. For the first year or so the baby will be with you almost 24/7. No judge will allow a baby away from its mother for more than a few hours then it’s just daytime visits. That’s just how it is. Don’t listen to idiots, people always gonna hate :roll_eyes:
Personally I think I would block them both out of my life, too much drama.

You sound like a bitter baby momma who is pissed that he chose another woman. If he is going to be a good father and her a good step mother then let that child be loved. You have a lot of growing up to do in the next 30 weeks. Put your child first and give it a life it deserves with 2 (or more including step parents) loving parents!

Now that you’ve decided to keep the baby. You need to be a grown up. You need to think about your baby’s needs first. Your baby deserves a father! If he is with someone else, than that’s more people to love your baby. Nowadays it’s called a co-parenting relationship.

He is a father. You have no say.

She didn’t do anything to you. And she’s already accepting a child from a man that cheated behind her back and she’s giving him a second chance and it sounds like what’s really bothering you is that he won’t choose y’all over them
he should take you to court and get his own visitation and his own paternity established. He doesn’t have to parent his child on your terms. Both of you laid down that is his child as much as it is yours.

From an outside perspective, it sounds like you still harbor feelings for the baby’s father and don’t want to admit you want to be with him. If he wants to be involved in your child’s life, you have to come to terms with everything he brings to the table. It sounds like there was deceit going on from every party, but if she’s willing to put it all in the past and accept your child as part of the family, you should do the same. All it will do in the long run if you don’t is teach your baby that it’s ok to shut someone out without reason.

What he told you about her may have been a lie just to hook up with you but even if what he said is true she has done nothing wrong to YOU and unless she is a danger it is the father’s decision to have his&your child around whoever he chooses to be around just like you won’t let him decide who you have around his&your child. Why do some women think it is totally up to them? It’s not. And that’s not my opinion it’s the law. Several states are now splitting custody between parents BC a child deserves both parents.

Technically the kids are in fact getting a sibling and he is the father. If you had been together and separated the same thing would happen. The details are different but the outcome is the same, at stepmom. Keeping the baby from him without a valid reason for the welfare of the child is wrong.

Honestly, I wouldn’t stress about either one of them. These things have a way of working out. Their relationship sounds rocky, at best. Probably would be best to go to court after the baby is born and set up visitation and child support.

And, like I said before, although I don’t believe you should be being mean to the other woman about all of this, that doesn’t mean you owe her a friendship or access to YOUR child. That decision is yours. Not his or hers. And certainly not any strangers on the internet.

I think you need to accept their strange situation, like everyone needs to accept yours. It takes a village bAbe and it’s a blessing to have one. If she is toxic or a bad person things would be different.

I love the ending, “I don’t want any drama.” Sis you have drama endless you cut them both out. Why do you hate her so much? If you’ve never even met her? Sounds like she’s being very mature about the whole thing and everything else you know is hear say. At the very least go have coffee with the girl she could be the one you’d trust with your child, even over dad. Nevertheless if you want no drama I’d leave the “father” portion of the BC blank
 or learn to live with her.

How is the fiance that you didn’t know about and that probably didn’t know about you the enemy here hun? Isn’t he the one that betrayed you both? If he chooses to be with her and he will also be in your baby’s life then you don’t really have a choice about her being in your baby’s life at some point in time. And honestly, it seriously takes a village!! Unless she personally has wrong you or your child in some way then why not welcome more ppl willing to love, help care for, protect, and be a safe person your child?! If she is going to be in your baby’s life I promise there will come a day that you will appreciate her. I would truly say, meet her, get to know her, see if she is a healthy person to be in your child’s life. If it turns out she’s not then have a discussion with dad, ultimately you and him are the protectors of that baby and need to make decisions and talk things through, ONLY in the interest of the child.

This man is playing around on both of you. He is getting sex from two women and this “sex to get back at someone” just shows how young and stupid the behaviour is. A child is not a possession. It is a blessing. You supposed adults need to grow up. You need to realise that children need to see adults getting along and that means adults caring for children and their wellbeing and safety whether they are blood or not!!!

Okay I was with my daughter’s dad for a little while and wound up pregnant no sooner than I get pregnant he went and moved 16-year-old in with him and he was 30 something he denied my daughter for the first year two days before her first birthday he was told by the attorney general that he was the father so he came to her birthday he went and bought her some stuff and stuff like that took me to buy the stuff he paid for it well he started getting my daughter but when she went I went cuz she was just a baby and me and the other girl was friends in the end hey would come pick his daughter up take her back to his girlfriend leave to go out and do drugs and alcohol as the years went by I come to find out about him leaving her there her brother would go too even though he wasn’t he is my daughter and son was actually brother and sister and cousins so they were all from the same family well this girl she was a big girl well the more and more I get to know her and his family visiting her that was their only second granddaughter one son had no kids one son had two boys and in her last son had my daughter so that was the first granddaughter in a long time because his sister had a boy a girl and a boy I believe so they were the only two granddaughters well I found out that I was being all hateful toward her and in the end if it hadn’t been for her I don’t know where my daughter would have been because he literally picked her up and dropped her off with her my daughter can still tell me at one time he pulled up while she was with this other lady and turned around and walked back out the door leaving and the girl had to chase him trying to make him stay with his daughter and he still wouldn’t do it so sometimes these women that’s on the other end of the deal turned out to be better than what the father is my daughter lost track with her she’s 30 now when she was probably 11 or 12 this woman got tired of the abuse and left to another state my daughter was heartbroken because she had left but she was in an abusive relationship so my daughter was pregnant with her first daughter around 18 19 and she sees this woman’s brother at a gas station after all these years and she called her found out where she lived drove there the first time she had seen her and all that time she done had a new life with a man in a son that wasn’t he a hers she could never have kids ever since then we’ve all been together no one each other and where did her daddy end up in prison for the rest of his life I know it’s a long story but it just goes to tell you that sometimes that other woman is a better parent than what the man is my son’s daddy wasn’t worth the crap either because he was never there for my son from that time he was about to on he’s 32 now and his daddy’s never been in his life all he’s had is me and he says it’s his responsibility to take care of me so sometimes you just got to get to know people before you make a judgment about her the baddest part about her father was the fact that when she got up in her teenage years and filled out as in a girl he was hurt making the statement to someone about selling her out to men so see this man turned out to be the devil and she turned out to be the saint she helped me so much when my daughter not to mention he kept quitting his job and owes me over 56,000 in child support

Yeah, you’re in that drama, like it or not. He’s your kids father, and she’s his fiance. She has done absolutely nothing against your baby and no judge is going to give you a no contact order because you’re being petty and spiteful. She’s going to be in your kid’s life.

If he’s the father he’s got rights to see that child. And if he’s with her or around her, she too will have access. You can’t get a stay away order because you’re petty, there has to be a legitimate threat and it sounds like the only implied threat here is to your ego. Why would you want less people to love a child? Regardless of who lied about what and how this messed up family dynamic is unfolding, just be happy that your child will be loved.
