Hello Casey,
I wouldn't beat yourself up for wanting to do what's "right" in allowing your son to have a relationship with his father, however - he doesn't sound like he's going to be a healthy contribution to either one of you. If anything, the situation will escalate with manipulative tactics and attempts at controlling you and your decisions, making you question yourself. Pay attention to your instincts though I also know when you are under stress, it's hard to be as in tune with it. A lot of your energy is being devoted to your baby though getting into power struggles with the father is going to drain you of your emotional resources. Do what you can to nurture yourself in this process in order to keep you and your baby safe.
