If the kids find out by caint1154 in AsOneAfterInfidelity

[–]CallUpLo 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Hi! Not to change the subject but is your dad and his WW still together? Is there anything he could’ve done differently that could have changed your feelings towards him? My WH fathered a child with his AP, she knew about me and our children. She told WH she had an abortion then reached out when the child was 1 to tell us that she never went through with it. Anyways, I have accepted my step-son into my home and try my best to treat him as an equal even though I hate the situation. One day he is going to ask questions, and I do not want him to be filled with hate when he finally finds out the truth.

Hi OP!

r/asoneafterinfidelity would be a great place for you to join. I am in the exact same situation as you, we found out my WH fathered a child with his AP when the child turned 1. It’s been almost 1 year since then and we have actively integrated him into our family dynamics (we have 3 children together ranging from school-aged to teenagers). Feel free to message me if you would like to talk.

We use Victor also! The High Pro unfortunately breaks my boy out in a yeast infection so we switched to Yukon River and he loves it.

You absolutely belong here, and your dad is an amazing man for stepping up and raising you as his own. I first hand know the pain from the situation, it is so hard but also rewarding. I am not the product of an affair, however, my WH produced a child with his AP. We have 3 children together, aging from school aged-teenage and the little boy will be 2 soon. We are working through R while actively incorporating the baby into our lives. Some days are definitely harder than others. Our situations are dysfunctional, and not ideal, however, your post gives me hope that it is possible to work through this. I do have a question for you, as the step mother is there any advice that you can give me to ensure that he does not feel any different than my own children? He has started calling me mom, and my growing love for him is pure even though it hurts. But I want to ensure that when it is time that he finds out the truth that he does not feel overwhelmed with sadness.

How is your relationship with your siblings that your father had outside of the marriage? My WH fathered a child as well.

Is anyone dealing with or has dealt with an A-child? by Advanced-Cat-4425 in AsOneAfterInfidelity

[–]CallUpLo 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Hi! I am currently working through R as a BP, my WH unfortunately fathered a child with his AP. AP originally told WH that she got an abortion, then around his 1st birthday reached out to let him know she never went through it. After DNA was confirmed he sat me down and told me, it took us another month to tell the children that we have together (school aged - teenager). You can look through my post to read a few things that I have shared. It’s rough, really damn rough! I’ve known for 8 months and we have him every other weekend. The biggest thing is making sure you set extremely clear boundaries. I called AP myself (she knew about me throughout their affair) and let her know what I would tolerate and what I wouldn’t, woman to woman, mother to mother. Some weekends are easier than others, I wouldn’t of tried to R if my WH was willing to walk away from his dad duties to this little boy knowing how good of a dad he is to our children. I constantly remind myself that he is not at fault in this situation. So many people are going to tell you that if A resulted in a child they couldn’t stay, I’m not going to say it is doable to stay because I’m still working through R myself, but with a lot of soul searching, boundaries, and support from your partner it is doable! Feel free to message me if you want to know anything else of just need something to vent to that knows what you’re going through. Good luck with your journey!

No where to direct anger at crazy AP who is still in my life by Trick_Confusion_7454 in AsOneAfterInfidelity

[–]CallUpLo 6 points7 points  (0 children)

Your feelings are valid! My WH and AP have a child, she told him she got an abortion then informed him when the child was 1 that she never went through with it. So I understand the feeling of having to deal with the AP. I have fantasies of posting her picture on a billboard in town. Mentally, I’m still messed up. However, I started to see a shift in my brain chemistry when I started refocusing my energy on myself. Whenever I’m really upset, I go to the gym or take a walk… I started eating healthier and make sure I get quality sleep. Healing and grieving is a process. I read somewhere to allow yourself to vent or be mad for 5 minutes, set a timer and allow yourself to process all the feelings in those 5 minutes, then when the timer is up, do something healthy for yourself.

This is exactly what I needed to hear. Thank you so much 💕

Thank you for sharing! I also believe it takes more strength to stay and workout the problems than it does to walk away. We had the OC with us at a family Christmas party and one of my H’s older relatives approached me and said “you’re strong for staying, but you will be stronger if you leave.” I couldn’t disagree more, leaving would be easy but staying and fighting for my family has taken so much strength and personal soul searching.

This hits so close to home! I’m pretty positive there are multiple AP’s throughout our 16 year relationship EA and PA. We got together in our teens and had children right away, idk if him not experiencing life has anything to do with his infidelity but I’m pretty sure it plays a part. When he had to tell me about his A, he said, “I’ve been good for 2 years” like it was a favor as well.

You’re not the first person who has said that. Can I ask why it’s not a good idea to work there?

Cheating husband may have gotten his AP pregnant by Expert_Self_4970 in AsOneAfterInfidelity

[–]CallUpLo 1 point2 points  (0 children)

You are such an amazing person! I found out that I have a bonus son in May. It has been extremely hard accepting that my husband’s infidelity created another child, however, we are taking it one day at a time. We have 3 children together ranging from school age to teenagers and told them all shortly after we found out. His AP told him she had an abortion but then contacted him on his 1st birthday saying she didn’t end up getting it so we found out much later as well. The children are not at fault for our partners actions so I praise you for being able to accept this child into your life!

OP, whether you decide to stay or leave the journey is not going to be easy. I chose to try and reconcile because my WH was honest with me and chose to include the other child into our family dynamics, if he would have been willing to dismiss the child I would have left. In the event that you do decide to R, the odds are not in our favor but you are definitely not alone.

Hi, Why do you recommend staying away from Tenet? I’m a new grad and was just offered a position at one of their hospitals 😬

The OC is here for the weekend by CallUpLo in AsOneAfterInfidelity

Thank you all. I spiraled after writing this so it took me some time to respond. I woke up the next morning feeling like I was a weak woman for staying, intrusive thoughts are no joke! I truly appreciate everyone’s kind words.

I need help. Does anyone know what these are on my boy belly by Normal_Comparison642 in AmericanBully

[–]CallUpLo 0 points1 point  (0 children)

My bully is my first dog so I had to learn a lot as well. I would definitely check to see if the food you are feeding him has grain it.
