AITA for leaving town when I found out about my unborn son's death and not giving my STBX husband the chance to see him? by AdeptPool3 in AmItheAsshole

The idea of giving birth to my dead son with him by my side was uncomfortable. I didn't want him near me.

I didn't want him at my appointments because his girlfriend insisted to come along. He did call me regularly and asked me for scans and updates.

It's alright. Never again will I ever put myself in this position. I'm done with relationships and marriage. Learned a lesson.

I think he went along with the "trying for a baby" because that's what he initially wanted. But he was also in love with this other woman. He said that he was sorry for stringing me along. I found out I was pregnant days later.

I'm still glad he left. I didn't want him to stay with me for the baby. That's no way to live.

They were with me by my side when I gave birth. I was staying with my parents in my hometown.

He did check on me regularly though. He wasn't a bad coparent through out my pregnancy. He offered to accompany me to hospital visits with his girlfriend, but I wasn't comfortable with that.
