I'm Currently Feeling: | Access??!! Just wondering if any of you have thought about what sort of access your ex will be having once LO is born?? And how soon will that commence??
See me and my ex live nearly 2 hours away from each other & he wants to start taking LO back to his house the weekend afetr she's born. He wants to do this every weekend.
Ive told him number 1 - the baby will not be leaving me for a good while afetr she born
and number 2 - no way am I letting him take my newborn on a train every friday!!
He can either come up & visit us in London or lump it to be honest |

I'm Currently Feeling: | Its something i've thought about but thankfully it shouldn't be too much trouble for me.
Ex-OH (sperm donor) is in the RAF and is currently 2.5 hours away from me by car. In september he moves base again and will probably be moving even futhur south again and will end up being 4 hours away from me. Then sometime between september and december he'll be going to Afghan for 6 months. He'll be missing the birth of his first baby completely, and won't see them for the first 4-6 months of their life. After then, god knows where he'll be going.
I don't drive so he'll have to come to us. If he hadn't been an asshole apart from going to Afghan I would be moving round the country/world with him but thats his choice. I expect he'll only see bubs once a month going by his attitude anyhow. |

I did ask him 2 but he decided to go on holiday with his mates the day im due. Isn't he lovely girls?? lol

On a good day he wants weekend access but thats rare, 90% of time he doesn't want to know us.
