To worry for my son's welfare at his dads??

Last week my baby (10m) came back with a razor cut finger tip hand poring with blood. His dad didn't take him to A&E even though he says he "didn't know how he did it" at the time (it only come out that he did it on a razor in the bath because I outright asked him as the cut seemed familiar as i have been razor blade cut lots in the past while doing my legs etc!? He swore blind he didn't know how he did it and he just "turned round and saw his hand pouring with blood". He brought him home immediately rather than taking him to A&E!
The next time he had my son I bought a baby pouch of food and told him it is in the bag and to please feed him. I picked him up 2 hours later and he had not fed him and my baby was starving (crying) hungry. He didn't tell me he hadn't ate but did say he'd not long woken up when I collected him. He also said he was going to pick my son up in a car he needed to "collect" the day after he'd been drinking all night so clearly over the limit!!

Please tell me if I'm over reacting? He's wanting to see him again tomorrow and I'm worried about his welfare!

No more unsupervised visits. Take a photo & record everything.

Accidents happen. Presumably the dad will learn about putting razors out of reach. And I’ve had it where my kid wakes up and is really hungry. Really surprised people will stop contact with their child as a result.

the drinking thing is more problematic as doesn’t suggest he’s on his A game with a 10 month old. Don’t know why he couldn’t go drinking on his kid free time.

Unless it sliced an artery, I doubt it was poring blood .. probably looked a lot worse than it was, a bit of pressure, a clean up, and a plaster.

He didn’t swallow glass though .. you can’t go to Court and SS to say you want to reduce contact.. for something that didn’t happen.

Exactly.
