I have a 2 year old step daughter and a baby on the way with my husband. Neither my husband nor I want to separate but quite honestly I think it may happen sometime soon. I was in hospital for our last weekend with sd and she was apparently quite upset that I wasn't around and became distressed when they visited me and I couldn't leave with them. My husband and I have discussed that due to her attachment to me and that I see her as my own, that he would most definitely want me around for his weekends with her even if we were to separate.
However that could mean that one day my husband could end up with another woman or anything could happen with custody and this could be taken from me. Has this ever happened to any of you? Does anyone know what to do if they have a step child in their life who expects them to be around and there is a break up? Especially with a baby on the way.
