My Husband Skipped Our Baby’s Birth — He Had “More Important” Plans

I was pregnant with my 1st child, my husband has 3. The day my water broke, he didn’t come to the hospital. He texted,
“It’s my son’s first football game. I promised I’d be there. Our newborn won’t recall this day anyway.”
I said don’t come home. He didn’t show up for 3 days. Worried, I went to his ex’s house, she looked flustered. I froze when I found out my husband had been staying there in the guest room because he felt offended when I asked him not to come home.

I was furious, and to make it worse, she turned to 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.” Then she added, “His first family will always be more important, and that’s just how life is.”

I couldn’t say a word and left. After seeing my husband’s indifference and hearing his ex’s words, I’m seriously considering divorce.
Today, 4 days after the birth, he finally came to meet his daughter. While I know he can be a great and devoted dad, his attitude has shocked me.

What should I do?
