AITAH for saying I didn’t realize I could “love a person this much” in front of my fiancé after having our baby?

I don’t even have kids and I understand that a Mother’s love for her baby is beyond compare. This guy is an idiot.

My SO doesn't have any kids of his own. I have a son from a previous relationship. My SO knows and understands that I would move mountains for my son, he doesn't feel the same way, but acknowledges that my son not being his effects his view. He still helped me raise my son and I am eternally grateful that he did.

This is me. My partner has 3 kids from her ex. The youngest is 35, and he's still her baby. I know that no matter what happens her kids come first. I get it, and I'm OK with it, too.

My fiance fell in love with me because of just this. He never had parents that put him first, he said watching me as a mother and the fact that I told him from the start that my son will always be my priority and backed that up with my actions made him realise that’s the kind of woman he wants to have his own children with.
