At last some news! You must be relieved, but think about yourself first and your child is not necessarily better of with a father, depends what kind of father. I am not telling you to give him up. Just don't feel you owe him anything. He put you through a lot. Take your time. Be sure.
I do think it was better not to confess his relationship with you right away. What good would that have done now ? He will have to at some point, but that's his problem, not yours.
I wish you all the best! Keep us posted!
Maybe one day, my prince will wake up. I have "broken my phone" as well.
