Not marry her.
Or at very least, seek pre-martial counseling where you can talk about your roles in the marriage, your expectation AND your parenting togeather.
Like it or not, she is going to have a huge influence on your son's life if you two get married and move in togeather. That influence should NOT be of a women who 'doesn't like' him, but of a mature and loving adult who has room in her heart for you AND your son. If she isn't that kind of woman, you are making a mistake in marrying her.

Talk to her!! Tel her your son is the MOST important thing and so is she, make sure you make her feel like she is loved too, and you are not picking your son over her, because she will feel like you don't love her. Talk to her softly, like a heart-to-heart talk when you're alone. Tell her you love her and you REALLY want to be with her, but if she can't TRY and love your son then it won't be fair to the both of you, you and your fiancee. Let her understand the situation you're in. If she truly loves you, she willtry get along with your son, just for you! Just because you are worth it!

get rid of her. your son should be the most important thing, and i'm pretty sure he is other wise you wouldn't be worrying about your fiance, so do the right thing!!!! when you have a child you instantly become a package deal!

Your son should come first. He is your family and blood. I don't want mean to cast ill will on your marriage, but she may not stick around forever. However, your son, will.
I wouldn't trust her around him, either. Who knows what may happen behind closed doors between the two of them. She could physically or verbally abuse or neglect him. Even if she doesn't do that, him realizing that she doesn't like him will cause serious problems, and he will hate you for it. I know.
I understand that he isn't her son and that may be why she doesn't show love to him, but she has to accept that marrying you includes marrying your son (not like that, but you know what I mean). I'm sorry, but I don't know what kind of person hates a child.
Anyways, you need to MAKE her understand that she must accept him. That doesn't mean he has to call her mommy, but she needs to be some sort of mother figure in his life. If she can't accept that, then I'm sorry, but she isn't the right woman for you.
I am serious about putting your child first. You can't be selfish. I can personally speak for children whose parents put their own needs first. You don't want to be that kind of parent.
Best wishes.
