OH YES! And finding her happiness is good for her child too.
It'll be rough at times. I'm not gonna lie. There is so much to explore about yourself in that post divorce time! And it's all about YOU and your pleasure/interests.
Hopefully, you have help; you may need time or space to figure out what you like so if you have a very reliable babysitter who is like family, even better

Yes, a young girl can get pregnant.
Usually a first indicator of fertility is a menstrual period. About 10% of girls can get their periods as early as 9 years old these days. But if she is raped or otherwise the target of unwanted sexual attention and hasn?t yet had her period, it?s possible she can get pregnant if her body is ready to begin.
But getting pregnant at this age is a terrible idea in my opinion. We need to protect them from going through such experiences at this young age. Let them have their childhood.

No. I don't really care much what gender my baby would be born as.
I always wish to celebrate the coming of a new child is that the baby is happy and healthy and the birthing process is smooth without too much pain.

There's this weird thing I thought when I was young that I wanted a boy and a girl. Of course, the boy to be born first so he could protect his little sister. But what happened was I gave birth to a girl first, so I taught her how to be a badass.
I have two girls and they're the best ever. I'm totally satisfied with my special deliveries.

Like lots of wives - BOOZE.
But seriously, this is a tough one. You have to decide what your boundaries are in terms of the self-centeredness and lack of assistance with kids stuff and communicate them soon. And maybe even get some help with a marriage and family therapist.
Good luck

The love I have for you is different than the love I have/had for your dad. You're part of me and part of dad - the best parts I bet! No matter what you do, I'm always going to love you.
I've already used this. Or some version of this.

Can the two of you see a couples counselor? Sounds like you need help getting to the bottom of his anger and rude attitude.
As I read this again, it sounds like you're not married. Did you ask for the divorce? Or reject him in some way? It sounds like he's really mad at you.

Furious?? That sounds like kind of a funny reaction if you ask me. To be furious sounds like you're making this about you.
Why don't you check in to see how he feels? Was it his decision? Was it what he wanted? How does he feel about the experience now? No one is old enough to consent to sexual activity at age 10 and most countries have age of consent laws to protect children from unwanted sexual attention. You didn't mention how old he is now; does he want to do it again?
Focus on your nephew and making sure he is doing okay.
I understand your anger but it doesn't help him. Try talking to a therapist about why your reaction was to be furious and what you can do with that energy to maybe help someone else in the future.

Just a quick thought: What kind of message are you hoping to impart on your children? To stay in it for the kids Some kids hate the idea after the fact that they potentially kept you from pursuing your own happiness. If they find out, and they will, that won't make them happy.
If you're going to divorce, an amicable divorce is optimal. It seems to me an easier conversation to have with the kids than if you have hostility towards one another. You're still friends and you support each other while you branch out in a new way BUT you are both always committed to loving and supporting the children. Love always comes first so they can rely on that.
Also, think about it this way: would you want your child to stay in an unhappy marriage for the kids??
