Today, my husband decided he would rather be with his mistress than with me while I gave birth to our first child. FML
I agree, your life sucks 31 592

MissyPants tells us more.

I am the op of this FML and I hope it shows that but let me explain this a little further. My soon to be ex husband has been cheating on me for the last few months of my pregnancy. I noticed the changes in him but I hoped it was just nerves over the baby. I actually caught him about three weeks before I went into labor and threw him out. I had planned on letting him be there when I gave birth to our baby girl but he didn't answer my calls. My mother was with me so I wasn't alone but I really thought he would want to see the birth of his first child. I have filed for divorce and have no problem being a single parent. He makes me physically ill at the moment but I have tried to be civil for our babies sake. I want him to be in her life because she deserves a dad but I can't force him to be one. I'm thrilled to be a mom no matter the circumstances and me and my daughter will be ok no matter what. Thank you all for the funny, sweet, and even mean comments; they make my day a little better.

Take every penny that bastard has. Be relentless and brutal. Hire a good attorney, win some alimony, and leave him in the rear view mirror.

Confused as to why this doesn't say 'about to be ex husband'

Hopefully that's your first, and only child, with that asshole:(

To the people saying that the father of the child doesn't deserve to lose any of his property or that the mother will be driving a Porsche... ROTFLMAO! I'm a single mother and I can tell you I drive a 21 year old car that is notoriously unreliable. I also have a half tooth that I can't afford to get fixed if my daughter is to be able to do the after school activities that she has chosen for herself. My experience is that 95% of the time the proceeds of a property settlement and child support are truly used to give a child or children of a broken relationship a sense of security and endeavour to make their life/lives as happy as possible.

I don't understand why people have clicked "You deserved it"?

Sounds like what happened with my ex. What did I do? Made sure I had enough evidence to ruin him. So I also moved halfway across the country with my daughter and he has no choice but to pay child support for a kid he doesn't know about

Divorce him, his mistress is obviously more imporatant to him than your child. Congrats on the baby!
