After 21 years of struggling with infertility, I finally got pregnant, but Ethan\u2019s behavior had been odd for months\u2014late nights, secret calls, and distant attitude. When I gave birth, Ethan refused to be in the delivery room, and when he finally showed up, he asked if the baby was even his.\n

He claimed his mother had \u201cproof\u201d of my infidelity and went on about how I\u2019d been unfaithful.
