Baby dads new kid

So my baby dad has never been involved or met My daughter he wasn’t intrested and said some nasty things and I think it’s best for her having him not there when she’s older I will tell her who he is as it’s her right to know an when she’s older she can decide on whatever she wants ti do he’s never been intrested but now he’s got a new baby with his gf and is involved and was happy with this baby I and I don’t know how to feel it’s not the baby’s fault or the mums but it’s weird to think m you daughters got a half sibling but I’m scared on how she will feel growing up if she feels rejected or not good enough I had a similar situation with my mum growing up and jus don’t want her to feel the same way and ofc if she ever wants to know her brother when she’s older it’s up to her as he’s still her brother but I don’t know jus keep thinking about it a lot and I’m sorry if this doesn’t make best sense I’m not good at writing things out 😭

I was in this same situation 2 years ago. The emotions are pretty strange. I was happy enough being on my own with my son, I knew we were better off as his dad didn’t have anything to do with him. My son basically became a pawn to manipulate me with. I felt upset that he had a new sibling he wouldn’t know until he was older and I was kinda upset he had a sibling that wasn’t through me?

I also worry what my son may think when he’s older and finds out but all I can do is be honest and say I’ve never wanted to keep him away from his sister but my priority was being a mother to him. He is more than welcome to meet his sister when he is old enough to make those choices himself. I’ve found peace in that.

I’m not sure if he’ll feel rejection and I pray he doesn’t but if that’s the case at least he knows he has a mother who adores him. Maybe this would be the way to think about it for your daughter too?

I also get how you feel my son's dad hasn't been in my son's life he came to the hospital after his mum and sister told him to and ignored my calls and text did even want to hold his son said that he might drop him the nurse was the one that made him hold his son and on top of that said my son looks like a paky which was hurtful to me and then when I went home came round. I thought he was going to help with our son, but no, he took bin out and sat on his ass all day, every time I said that he could hold him and feed him he said no you got this even when I brought my son too his mums he still didn't want to do anything his mum had to make him hold him and feed and change him. And then, within 2 to 3 weeks after I gave birth to my son alone, he hasn't shown up or even tried to arrange a regular visit, and he doesn't help out; my son doesn't remember him as daddy at all

Fertility treatment for 2nd child (NHS-UK)

I have PCOS and I am 10 months pp.
Im 31 and I had to use clomid and HCG to achieve pregnancy with my 1st. I have just been diagnosed as pre menopausal as well as having hyperthyroidism. Im still breastfeeding my 10 month old and want to continue until he is 12 months old at least.
Does anyone have any advice on what I should do to get pregnant? The NHS wont fund my 2nd and with my body clock rapidly ticking, I am terrified I wont be able to have a 2nd. We really cant afford private fertility treatment 😔
