I was pregnant with my first child, while my husband already had three children from a previous relationship. When my water broke, he didn’t come to the hospital. Instead, he texted me saying, “It’s my son’s first football game. I promised I’d be there. Our newborn won’t remember this day anyway.”

I was heartbroken and told him not to come home. He didn’t show up for three days. Worried, I went to his ex’s house, where she seemed flustered. To my shock, I found out that my husband had been staying there in the guest room because he felt offended that I told him not to come home.

I was furious. To make matters worse, his ex looked at me and said, “Well, your husband already has three kids, so this fourth one isn’t as special to him as it is to you. His first family will always be more important, and that’s just how life is.”

I was stunned and couldn’t even respond. After seeing my husband’s indifference and hearing his ex’s words, I started seriously considering divorce.

Today, four days after our baby was born, my husband finally came to meet his daughter. While I know he can be a great and devoted dad, his actions have completely shocked me. I don’t know what to do.
