Do they know that you are pregnant? When they do know they are sure to find out that Bill is the daddy, how would that all work out? Is Bill not planning to stay in their lives? Would you be sending your unborn child to this same daycare once you start work again after having the baby? Hmmm, if so and Daddy doesn't want any part of it how in the world could he be the baby's daycare provider and not mention being dad? It sounds to me you need some questions answered (they may already have been) and if this is the case I say when the baby is born, take the boys out as you'll be at home for awhile anyway and then put them somewhere else.
