Ummm...no.....he just needs to get a LAWYER to get closer to his daughter. This is a total excuse, Abbey. He's using the baby as an excuse to be around crazy OW. And she'll never be out of your life if you stay with him. So you really have to think if this is what you want.

And as for alimony - why on earth wouldn't you go for it, if you are entitled? The laws in most places allow alimony in instances where it is fair - if it would be awarded to you, then isn't it fair for you to be compensated in some way for the sudden change in life plans that H has brought onto you?
