Has anyone else had an ex want 5050 from birth?
My ex left a month ago when I was 30 weeks pregnant and has emailed to say he wants 5050 from birth. With the help of women's aid and a good friend who's a family law solicitor I wrote back saying that he can have 3 hours a day, SIX days a week at the home in order to bond with baby and let baby settle in to her routine with me.
This isn't enough apparently! He wants 5050 from birth.
I stated to be reasonable this routine will last for the first 15 weeks of baby's life and we can revise and see how it's going then.
I think that's reasonable is it not?! What's people's experiences of the father wanting 5050 from birth?
My son has 5050 with his dad and is so happy but that was after his dad and I lived together when he was little and 5050 began when he was in school. I'm not opposed to that happening in the future but surely at this stage it's literally baby steps?
Help. Very anxious at 34 weeks pregnant here 😩
