Advice needed

My baby’s father and I split up . We got into a huge fight . He said some hurtful things and so did I . I love him and he claims to love me . He apologized for what he said and he said he still wants us to talk . But not rush back into a relationship again . He says he wants to talk to me every day still and just see me when he gets to see our son . But he says he’s not ready yet he has a lot to deal with right now and feels overwhelmed. He said we should wait . Before we get back together idk what to do . Does it sound bad ?
