I wonder if looking at these pictures of our babies makes him sad? I wonder if he ever thinks about us and had a smidge of doubt about what he is doing? I will never know the answers to these questions.
Oh yes, he absolutely does have doubts. He may never verbalize them to you, but rest assured he's battling his demons on probably a daily (if not hourly) basis. He knows what he's doing is wrong and he's very likely having a nasty internal struggle over it.

My family is now saying that I better never take him back if he did come back.
Please do yourself and your family a favor and tell them to STFU. They are NOT helping with comments like that. Just tell them you want their support in whatever decision you make and that it is not their call to tell you what is right or wrong for you. Only you know that.

They are so disappointed at the way he has hurt my kids and I.
Of course they are. But that's no reason to advise you to give up. Read up on this in the beginning of DR, it helps explain why they are telling you this. They think they're acting in your best interests, but they're not.

He has been gone 3 months now...and I feel like it gets easier for him to forget about me and "us" the longer he stays away:(
Don't engage in mind-reading, you'll just torture yourself with what-if's. 3 months is not a lot of time, I doubt it's getting any easier on him. Especially with you being pregnant, it probably weighs on him a lot.
