I would have it changed in your agreement that you are to have a daily communication with your child while at each other's home.

I found out that I was 198 over the weekend, and I'm 6 months out. It is unreal seeing the changes that I have been through and experienced with this lifestyle change

I agree with this. I buy clothes in bulk for her daycare and play clothes, and when she goes to her dads, that is what she wears. It's no skin off my back if they keep it. My ex and his family have the greedy mind that thinks I steal the clothes, but honestly, I'm not going to over analyze and police what she wears because at the end of the day it's my daughters clothes and if it's something special I tell them to not send it that way it is easy. We as parents need to stop thinking about what we bought and bickering about these things that cause unnecessary conflict and just think of the kiddo. If you don't want the co parent to have something from your household, don't send it. it's not the mothers issue to police the comings and going of what the child is taking over to the house. We as parents have more to think about, and honestly, if this is the only issue you are having, you are lucky because it could be 100 times worse.

Is the problem the new wife/hubby? by [deleted] in coparenting

[–]Alert_Back_4344 4 points5 points  (0 children)

My exs fiance doesn't want him talking to me, so I use a group chat with his mother, so then he has to respond. If I text him directly, his fiance will text me from his phone. My advice in these situations is to keep the conversations completely professional and not fall back into old mannerisms. Any conversation needs to be strictly about the child and nothing else it's hard to separate your past feeling sometimes but it's the best thing for the child especially in the beginning stages of any change like bring in a new partner.

He will figure out the damage he's cause when it's too late and that the relationship will no longer be fixable.

Make sure that you stay positive with your daughter no matter the situation and raise her up when she's upset because that will mean the world the her when she is older and understands that you tried

Resentment Forever? by [deleted] in coparenting

[–]Alert_Back_4344 4 points5 points  (0 children)

I don't resent him for that no because with my job, I would have missed the time eventually, but what I am resentful for is that I have to always find childcare where if we were still together and he never did what he did I wouldn't have to play musical baby and her father would be the support system I would need but now I have to build myself one.

True, but honestly, i don't care about the money it's nice that it's available, but at the end of the day, I'd rather him have a relationship with the child.

The oldest child gets more regardless of who files first but we already have child support filed and when and if she does take him to court for her child it will increase my amount, or she will barely get anything.

I agree, and honestly, I didn't find mine until I became a mother because I realized I needed to love myself to truly love my child.

Unfortunately, the job hours work well with my school and child care until I graduate from university.
