The baby has not even been born yet, and ex seems determined to make everything as hard as possible.
I have said provisionally that I'd be happy with two week-day evenings (he works full-time, so could not do days) then every other weekend. In time the two evenings would become overnights, as would the weekend, and when the baby is too little to be overnight, I thought seeing him for one day every weekend where possible would work.
He says I am being utterly unreasonable, and that I need to think about what is best for the baby, which would be him seeing his father every day. For various reasons, I am not prepared to play happy families with this man. I do not want him in my house every day. Or at all, but I can see there is not really any option with a tiny baby.
What can I do? I feel like I am doing ok and then he starts raging again, and the tension rushes back. I want to make the best of a not ideal situation, for all of us. But most of all for the baby.
