Fathers contact

Do any of your baby's fathers work night shift ladies? And if so what contact would you expect/ propose? We aren't at the stage of weekend overnights etc. He comes 1 weekend day every 2 weeks ( his choice ) and says he can't do weekdays. Would you still expect a during the week visit? He works 10:30pm until 7:30am. He drives and lives 20 mins away and works 15 mins away.

@carly2803 he is 10 months and he comes for an hour 🙄. He doesn't take him alone he just comes to my house and I try to leave the room as much as I can, tbh DS doesn't actually no him because he sees so little of him and seems like he can't be bothered.

he comes for an hour every other week? wow .
i would expect him to come over 2/3 times a week for a good hour at a time, take an interest, feed the baby and play

i would expect him to come during the week too yes, if he wants a relationship withhis child
