Can't stop worrying ! Court order

Hiya, so me and my child's father currently have a court order in place, he only has my child a few hours a week for 2 days a week.

We are back in court in October but the judge did say if we can come to agreement outside of court about overnight contact then we can start that.

I offered my child's father overnights and he has said he's sticking to the court order. He is also trying to gain custody of my child.

I'm now worried how this would affect the case, I'm worried the courts might think I'm not sticking to the order and that dad is. Even tho dad did ask not so long ago through solicitors if he can have him once a week in august overnight.

Can't help that worry I have done something bad by offering this?? I just felt like my son was ready now.

I also stopped sending a handover book due to I'm not being used appropriately by my sons grandfather ( he wasn't meant to right in the book but did)

So I decided to do handover via text with my sons father, that seemed a little better.

I'm also worried that will go against me as it says handover book "must" be carried around with child.

But it was giving the other party a way to right stuff what wasn't necessary!!
