One thought would be starting very simply and verrryyy slowly, not trying to renew the whole relationship at once but just simply acknowledging that you are facing many emotionals hurdles and you understand that she is too. Perhaps assuring her that even if you don't see her she will have an honored place in your child's life becasue she gave him life. And then ending it by simply saying that you hope you will both be able to eventually move beyond the hurt and have some type for realtionship for your son's sake. Then wish her and her (new) baby well and put the ball in her court.
These are just my thoughts...hope I don't seem bossy and like I'm telling you how to handle things!! You are so thoughtful and your intentions are honorable so cut yourself a break and realiz eyou can only control your half of the equation and not how she responds. You are only responsible for your feelings, not hers.
Good luck to you, Gottahavehope.
