I think you should tell his parents about the baby. Don't bring up anything about the OW.

Don't tell them about how badly he is treating you. Call them with the happy news and say how you are excited to raising the baby and having them as grandparents.

Keep stressing that.

When your H comes up and tells them about the OW, his parents will come down hard on him because it jeopardizes their relationship with their future grandchild. Get it? Saying less is much more effective. And they are going to be sure that he stays responsible or give the OW a hard time.

After all, you're the helpless victim in all this right?

Just make sure you send him the message before letting his parents know.
