One of the hardest things to deal with a WAS is when children are involved. They get to cake eat, especially if they are the part time parent, while the LBS gets to be run over emotionally again and again everytime they see them (as long as they let them).
Trust me I get it. Your trying to detach, GAL, and otherwise move on...but your also "stuck" with the WAS in your life for a minimum of 18 yrs...but in reality is until one of the two of you pass away. Its all part of having kids in the new world we live in where shrinks, lawyers, and friends all tell spouses to walk away at the slightest inclination of unhappiness.
Now to the fun part. Once your son is born, your going to have your hands full...and a new priority will fill your life as well. Your WAS will be an afterthought for the most part. Just be careful of post partum depression, and enjoy the new life you have created. Once you feel up to it....do not hesitate to leave the baby with the WAS and go GAL for the night. Nothing crazy, but go out and do something for YOU. But dont let your WAS cake eat and have all the fun, while you are mommy 24/7....make him BE the father.
