I'm 25 weeks pregnant but im not with the dad im with someone else, the father wants nothing to do with child even tried to make me get an abortion, but since being with this other guy i feel that bub has got a connection with him as his moods effect the baby and bub is more active at certain times when bub knows he is home or coming home..  Does that make me a bad person? For letting my baby think someone else is their dad? Any other mums been in this position?

I think you're jumping a little ahead on your baby's moods and attachment to your boyfriend - your baby reacts to YOUR moods,  not a boyfriend's.  If your baby is more active when your boyfriend is about to come home,  it's not because the baby predicts your boyfriend is coming home, it's because your heartrate/energy level is elevated.

I say this because it's a concern when parents think their babies know more than they do - and so the parent's expectations are that the baby behave better or socially acceptably.

I feel as though a dad is whoever really cares for, loves, and provides for your child... Especially if the biological father just left you alone because you refused to murder your innocent child. Kerp your head up and thank god that he blessed you with someone that truly loves you and your bundle of joy. It's not about what anyone else says or thinks. It's about your happiness and the well being of your bby.
