I suggest you keep in contact with your childhood sweetheart by email ONLY! That way you can see how things go and exactly what her intentions are. It could be that you leave the mother of your child and things don't work out with the other woman either. If your girlfriend is soon to become a mother then she'll need your support, at least for a while until she gets used to motherhood. I would say nothing to her about this other woman and I wouldn't commit yourself to the other woman just yet either. Let her know your predicament and tell her that you need time to get your head together, hence the reason you don't want to meet up with her just yet. (If you do, you know you'll only end up sleeping together).
Give it say 8 weeks and see how things pan out before making any life changing decisions. Like the other aunt said, even if you do choose not to be with your girlfriend, you can still be a part of your child's life so you'll always be its dad!

You can't stay with this girl just because of the baby it would not be fair on either of you in the long run and plus you are clearly in love with the other women, she realised what she wanted and acted on it maybe you should now do the same and just because you leave it does not mean that you can't be a fantastic dad, and your child would benefit more from having parents that are separated rather than together but with no love.
Take care.xx.
