My husband missed the birth of our son and didn’t come to see us for 3 days – now he’s mad I’m stopping him from having the baby

A furious woman felt her husband reaped what he sowed after missing the birth of their son.

After his betrayal, she felt justified in keeping him away from the baby.

Editor TraditionalPause7723 shared the family drama in a viral post.

She explained that her husband’s work requires a lot of traveling, which often keeps him away from home for months at a time.

“I discovered I was pregnant when he had been away for a month. I thought he would be very happy; we were trying to have a child and he always wanted to be a father,” she said.

“But he didn’t say anything. After a week or so, when he came back, he was furious with me.”

While her husband was away, an old friend of hers from high school, a photographer, visited her to take some photos.

“I was so happy to see him; he’s not an easy person to contact. I drove him around all day. I hugged him before he came back,” she said.

“Someone took a photo from that time and sent it to my husband. I later found out it was his aunt. She is a lazy, single, bitter woman. She sticks her nose into everything.”

Upon returning to her husband’s house, she was shocked when he accused her of infidelity.

“The day he came back, he was furious with me. He said I was cheating on him. I explained everything, but he didn’t believe it. I also tried to contact my friend, but he disappeared again,” she said.

Worse still, her husband’s aunt continued to poke her nose into their business.

“My husband’s aunt came to our house and said that the authentic necklace my friend gave me as a gift was ‘proof that I was selling myself to rich guys behind his back,’” she said.

“It caused a big fight between her and me. I told him it’s nothing like that. It’s probably not even very expensive in the country where he bought it; it’s just a souvenir. I’m not betraying him.”

Despite her defense, her husband refused to believe her, expelling her from the house.

“I asked him to let me spend the night; it was going to get dark soon. He said he was sure the baby wasn’t his; he hadn’t been with me for a month,” she said.

He’s been apologizing ever since. I haven’t shown him the baby yet; I don’t think I will. He is saying he made a mistake, he really loves me.

“With that, he pushed me out. I seriously thought I was going to fall and hurt myself.

“My parents were out of town; I didn’t have any trusted friends in town I could spend the night with. I also didn’t have any money on me at the time.”

His last resort was to call his brother, who plunged four hours to reach his door.

“When my brother got there, he looked very angry. He could have done something to my husband if I hadn’t pulled him away, saying I was really cold and needed to go somewhere to warm up,” she said.

“After that, my husband was completely [no contact] with me and my family.

“I was only able to contact him through his coworker Ali. But he said he just needed some space to ‘heal.’ He didn’t ask about me during the entire pregnancy.”

Her husband, however, made posts on social media about being “cheated on,” along with photos with other women.

“I don’t know who they are; he never responded to my texts or calls. He can’t see me right now. And I will soon receive divorce papers too,” she said.

“He was not present at the birth of my son. He didn’t come even after three days, even though I made sure to let him know. , and ‘surprisingly’, it’s his. Who would know?”

Since the paternity test, her husband has been begging for forgiveness.

“He’s been apologizing ever since. I haven’t shown him the baby yet; I don’t think I will. He’s saying he made a mistake, that he really loves me,” she said.

“He’s going to make it up to me. I told him I won’t believe it. He says I can’t hide the baby from him; it’s his baby; he has a right to see it.”

Critics, however, thought otherwise.

“He doesn’t deserve you or your son, and not one bit of that is love. He blew up his entire life for nothing,” said one commenter.

Others thought that the husband had the right to see his son, but obviously he had to follow the right path.

“Yes, he has the right to see his son. And he is very welcome if this right is established by a court,” said one commentator.

“Just as you should go to court to get what is rightfully yours: your belongings that were in the house, probably half of the marital assets and alimony,” they added.

“Start the divorce process. Get what is rightfully yours. Request spousal support, he can then decide if he wants to request custody. That’s up to him.”
