P, it's irritating that these people are being so thoughtless. I would definitely let these emails go for a while. Blow off steam and then reply in a week or so. Or as long as you can wait. I like BD's suggestion; if that works for you, go for it. Or you could just write a short line like "Thanks for your thoughts; I'm trying to figure out the best situation for me and the baby." Or "for everyone involved."
We support you, P! We know that it is too much for one person to handle. You need time and it's fine.
BD, I know! There could not be an OW! I guess I go with the worst-case-scenario deal, so that if it's not that bad, I'm surprised. I just really want to be prepared. Plus, I do consider an EA an OW. With my WH, I don't know if he's found anyone yet, but I know he's looking. And every weekend I wonder if he found her! Well, I try not to wonder, but I do a little bit. But I don't think that I'm that awful, no no. I think she's awful, whoever she is, because it's low-class to date a married guy! Ha ha! And I think he'll figure that out one day.
But your WAH, BD, doesn't really sound like he has an OW. IMO.
All right, off to Lamaze class!
