I wasn't sure where to put this thread but I guess here is the best place.
I am 32 weeks pregnant and I ink I'm becoming over protective over my 7 year old boy.
He has always gone to his daddies since he was a toddler ( when his dad and I split up) I've always actively encouraged contact with my ex despite the fact that his dad sees it as some kind of chore that he has to do.
He has never been the most active parent anyway, this is why it went tits up in the first place.
Every other weekend my little man goes off to daddies, more and more reluctantly as he gets older. Then comes home with tales of eating nothing but plain rice with some frozen veg mixed in it, and watching movie after movie and not actually going anywhere all weekend. He's more and more convinced that going to daddies is boring.
Not only that but he comes home and has to be bathed and all clothing even unworn ones and soft toys need washing because of the smell.
His dad's house looks like a shit tip, you can't see the floor and the kitchen you can't see the work surfaces for unclean ex's and old dishes, it's disgusting.
Every time he goes I get sad, I usually am found by my dp sitting in ds's room hugging his pillow and wishing it was time for him to come back to safety.
Non of this was a major problem I used to be able not to think too hard about it all but since I've been pregnant, it's almost like my mummy hormones have gone haywire.
I almost want my little one to say he doesn't want to go anymore, he came home a day early this weekend. But then I would feel like I was keeping him from having contact with his daddy.
What do i do?
