Advice
My sons father and I broke up in the 7 month of my pregnancy, he stopped coming to my appointments, he stopped talking and checking on me, he didn’t buy anything our son would need prior to his birth... He’s in a new relationship which he began while I was pregnant, it was a hard pill to swallow given that our son was planned, he doesn’t support me finically the first tine he’s given me something for the baby was a fee days ago and he’s 2 months now, and that was only 50 dollars I’m not complaining but I didn’t go on maternity leave before having my baby, and I went my full term, I worked hard to make sure I had the things he would need, he always says he has stuff for Noah but it’s at the apartment where he stays, he doesn’t respect my wishes of wanting him to spend time with Noah in a place I’m comfortable in, he stays in a 2 bedroom apartment with his girlfriends family and it’s over 10 people who stay in such a small space, he sleeps on the couch, so I’m not comfortable with my small child being in that environment, I have no issue with him being alone with Noah but not there, he’s seen Noah 5 times since he was born, and on one of the visits he attempted to bring his girl friend along but he didn’t tell me until my son and I were dressed and about to leave, I’m uncomfortable with her being around my son because my sons father and I are young and I just feel like even though he’s too little to understand bringing people in and out of a child’s life gives them a wrong and confused idea of certain aspects of life, I’m also uncomfortable because he cheated on me with this new girlfriend while I was pregnant... he only wants to watch him if she can be around but she doesn’t want my sons dad alone around me and I feel the same way towards her. Despite his bare minimum effort I was going to let him see Noah for Father’s Day yesterday and before we went to the store and we ran into him, I asked him did he want to see Noah a few days before and he never respond saying he did or didn’t he said “I want to build a bond with him so I can help him when he cries” and I didn’t hear from him until Father’s Day when he saw us he took my son took a picture and left, he had no desire to see him any more, he didn’t ask about it at all, his girlfriend is under the impression he’s being kept away but she’s asking these things of him that make me feel as if she’s trying to get him to stay away, she told him he needed to leave the room when I breast feed my son, and it’s like all his interactions with Noah have to go through her first, I want to just keep him at a distance because this will only continue and I don’t want Noah to be confused or think certain things are okay when they aren’t.
