If he hiding stuff, I am not sure you will get him to change until he hits rock bottom. It would be hard to tell when he does, because he will probably always be convincing that he will change and stop the secret second life, but how would you really ever know?
I would focus on baby now, and use a lot of time for baby and getting your head straight, but I would not just let him back for you to make up your mind, unless you can handle how everything is going right now.

Well first thing's first, he has cheated on you. If he's telling the truth and he has not engaged in any physical contact with these girls, and he has just been talking to them, then he has emotionally, mentally cheated on you, in my opinion. Talking to other people online is fine, IF your partner is aware of it, if it is just friendly conversation, and if your partner is okay with you doing so. I sometimes talk to people online, but my boyfriend knows of this, and it is totaly innocent nothing more that friendly chit chat.My question to you is, do you honestly believe he has only talked to these girls? Does he lie to you a lot, do you have good reason to trust what he tells you? Do you feel you will ever get over these secret girls in his life? And is that the kind of person you feel you can live with?You need to ask yourself all these uestions and make sure you are doing the right thing. Being with someone for the children's sake is not the best thing to do, not that I'm suggesting that's what you're doing at all. Mature and well functioning couples, share no secrets and have nothing to hide from eachother. If you feel to hurt and unable to trust him in the future, I'd say that you probably allready know you should part your ways. You say he treats you like a princess and he's your soulmate, from an outsider view this seems hard to believe, and maybe that's what you want to believe. Your soulmate doesn't go lying behind your back, and if he's treating you like a princess, perhaps it's because of the guilt and fear of losing you. Do you think that maybe you deserve much better?

You need to ask yourself if you believe him that he hasn't been intimate with these girls. Although, just because he hasn't been physically intimate with them doesn't mean his actions weren't that of a cheater. I would classify what he has been doing as cheating or trying to cheat. Secret email, profiles on multiple dating sites, secret contacts... If he had nothing to hide then why is he hiding it? Personally I don't trust him based on what you've told us.
What should you do? Focus right now on having your baby. That is a huge life changing event that is just around the corner. Put this on the back burner for right now. You have enough to worry about. When you come back to this, you need to decide if you believe he wants to change. I'm sceptical of change. Change for any reason other than wanting to for one's self is temporary at best. I question if he really views this as a problem and therefore will only change how he hides it from you.
