Yes, it's only right that I marry her once my divorce is final.

You do realize that if you marry bc it is "right" bc she's pregnant then you will be getting another divorce soon. Don't marry her just for this. I'm guessing she got pregnant on purpose just for this reason.

If you want joint physical, don't marry OW or cohabitate for at least a year. You need to see how she's going to treat your vulnerable toddler. A three year old can't even full express some of the crap an angry or cold-hearted non-relative might pull.

Except OW doesn't want to abort the baby, which OP said somewhere around page 2. So what are you on about?

OP this all sounds a mess, but forget all this stuff about your toddler growing up hating you and so on. That isn't always the case. Many of the people here are weird.

No, she got pregnant a few months after we got married.

Too late for this time, but for NEXT time, please consider spending time with your next wife just as a couple before impregnating her.

Why would you think the ow would do something to the daughter? I'm an ow and I love his kid. I took care of the baby when the mother was in the hospital, but you all called me a troll.

Because OW already irrevocably damaged a small child's life. And so did you.

Oh please, the child doesn't even remember me.
Disgusting.

OP, I don't know why this poster is talking about abortion. Aside from that, however, some good points are raised.

You MUST see how this woman is going to treat your toddler, and how your toddler will react to her, before you jump into a cohabitation scenario where your child will be living with this woman 50% of the time.

You even said yourself that you didn't spend much time with your wife while the affair was going on (so perhaps your child too?) -- so it is immensely unfair to divorce, then tear your 3 year old away from her mom half the time, to immediately go live with you and another woman.

Do you really not see how confusing and difficult that will be for your daughter? Perhaps the OW can stay in her residence now. You rent a separate apartment for the days when you have your daughter. When you don't have your daughter, you can live with the OW. This will give your daughter time to slowly adjust, and time to get to know the other woman before being forced to live with her.

She is going to grow up in a world in which her parents were always apart and she always spent part of her time in each house.

I grew up in a divorced family. It isn't that bad. It was certainly much better than my parents living together.

Not everybody gets a Leave to Beaver experience for their family. Despite that, most people do well.
