Absent bf during pregnancy 🄺

Thing have been really rocky with my bf and I, my entire pregnancy he didn’t treat me the best. He left me alone, didn’t come inside for the appointments, didn’t help with anything concerning preparations for new baby, and just plain nasty. So the last 2 weeks he came back home apologized and said he wanted to redeem himself and be there for me and our baby. So next week I have a scheduled c section that I already had my mom down as my support person, but my bf said that he wanted to be there with me so I didn’t really agree with it cause he hasn’t been there for me, but said he’s the dad so why not.

So I asked him the day before the c section can he take off and help me with any last min things and enjoy my last day being pregnant and he said ā€œI’m not taking off! I’m only taking off the day of and maybe the next dayā€. He doesn’t like hospitals so he won’t be staying overnight. When I mentioned to him why I wanted him to and it made me feel sad, ā€œhe said well if you wanna be depressed over petty stuff that’s on you, stop complaining all the time just be happyā€

I don’t know if I’m overreacting but for some reason I got really sad and a thought came to my head should I even give our baby his last name. He hasn’t shown any interest or been there or done anything for our baby. That made me realize I don’t wanna make it work with him either and honestly wished I stuck with my mom as the support person. Just venting please no rude comments guys 😩
