New babies

[Mammy7]

My sons dad has had a baby with his girlfriend, I feel really strange about it and I can’t help admit I feel anger towards the situation, so 7 years ago I had a fling with this person and he give me hell when I announced I was pregnant with our son. He didn’t want me to go ahead with the pregnancy he said some unforgivable things he blanked me the whole pregnancy and birth. Since to be fair he has been apart of our sons live in a weekend and paid for him. But he now has had a baby last weekend a baby girl and he was there at the birth he was there through her pregnancy. How do other people feel when this happens? I feel bad for feeling the way I do but I can’t help it. It’s like they are having what I should of had I know our circumstances where different.

Well tbh he was in a relationship with that woman whereas you and him was just a fling so of course he is going to be different?? I don’t think many people are thrilled to have a baby with a fling, at least he is there and seeing the child and pays that’s a big positive as loads F off and don’t bother but yes he will feel differently about having a baby with his girlfriend, I don’t think you can be angry when you say yourself it was just a fling? Was you hoping the baby would turn it into a relationship?

I'm not sure why you feel anger when the two circumstances are so very different.
He's stepped up since the birth, which shows he's tried to do the right thing, despite initially behaving like a wanker.
Only you can unpick why you feel like this.
