When my water broke, he didn\u2019t come to the hospital. Instead, he texted me saying, \u201cIt\u2019s my son\u2019s first football game. I promised I\u2019d be there. Our newborn won\u2019t remember this day anyway.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>I was heartbroken and told him not to come home. He didn\u2019t show up for three days. Worried, I went to his ex\u2019s 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.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>I was furious. To make matters worse, his ex looked at me and said, \u201cWell, your husband already has three kids, so this fourth one isn\u2019t as special to him as it is to you. His first family will always be more important, and that\u2019s just how life is.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>I was stunned and couldn\u2019t even respond. After seeing my husband\u2019s indifference and hearing his ex\u2019s words, I started seriously considering divorce.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>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\u2019t know what to do.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>I was pregnant with my first child, while my husband already had three children from a previous relationship.
