A pregnant woman has shared how she banned her husband from the delivery room after she found out that he had been cheating on her with another woman from work.
Taking to Reddit, the woman revealed that some people thought she was in the wrong for not letting her ‘soon-to-be ex-husband’ in the delivery room.
“We have been trying for a baby for three years and when I told him that I was finally pregnant he broke down and confessed. I asked for a divorce and he moved out,” she wrote.
She said that she does not want him in the delivery room as “he is not my partner anymore. I don’t want him seeing my body.”
The woman also clarified that she is not ‘punishing’ her ex. “I just can’t have him with me. He is beside himself with grief and everybody thinks I’m so wicked and ev*l now.
“How could I be so wrong about how to feel about my own body?”
Many Reddit users were quick to side with the mother, with one person commenting: “Unfortunately for him, it’s your moment and your body. Not his. Your choice and you are entitled to this decision. Ignore what others say, do what you feel. Does he deserve to be there? No, he doesn’t. I would feel the same!”
Another wrote: “F*** everyone and their opinions on who you want and don’t want in the delivery room. Hope it goes smooth for you and the baby.”
A third added: “Just tell your Dr and nurses who are allowed there, they will take care [of] the rest. Do not tell him when you go into labor.”
