So I'm 10 weeks pregnant tomorrow and it's looking more and more likely that this baby is going to be strong enough to go the full term (I previously had a miscarriage).
My now ex partner and father to this baby has lied, cheated, tried to steal from me, controlled me and physically beat me (on 2 occasions).
I've known him for ten years and part of me says that I should give him the chance to see this baby when it's born, whilst my family feel it's best to put court orders, etc in place to stop him getting the chance.
I'm really tempted to send him the 12 week scan picture in a Christmas card just to let him know he/she is okay but I don't know whether I'd be rubbing salt into the wounds.
For those of you who have or may have been in this situation what would you do? Would you give him the chance and try to keep him in the loop or would you do everything in your power to deprive him the chance of being a father for the 1st time?
I've attached 2 pictures - what he did to me and my little bean at 8 weeks :(
