Nervous about meeting tomorrow

blissfullyignorant

My X and I don't really get along but we're not at each others throats either. We've had an agreement for the last few weeks (maybe a month and a half?). It just isn't working for DS. He is having some fairly substantial issues with transitioning between houses and I think it's because of the amount of time he spends at X's house (in a row).

Tomorrow I have a meeting with X and both our attorneys. I've already talked to my attorney and we're going to ask X about having a little less time much more spread out through the week. I really think we just threw DS into this and didn't realize that he needs more frequent shorter visits. I know X won't agree to them even though it's best for DS (he already told me he won't agree to anything less than 50/50)/

We have a temp. orders hearing on Monday if we can't agree. My stomach is in knots. I hate the idea of a judge making such a huge decision without ever having met us before. In no way, shape, or form do I want to keep DS from X  and I'm worried he's going to try to make it out like that's the case. Ugh.

wishing you the best of luck that things go the way that will be best for your LO.

Please keep us updated - I will be in the same boat as you in less than a month and I am NOT looking forward to it...

I will be there too. I have court on Dec 2nd except I am going for full custody of my LO and I REALLY hope I get it. My ex hasn't seen his daughter in over a month. (His choice, not mine). And he wants 50/50 joint custody. YEA, RIGHT!!!!

sounds like we're all in the same boat. ex hasn't seen DD since she was 3 days old (his choice not mine). He wants 50/50 joint custody as well. but our case is just getting started (oh joy!) Anyway, please keep us updated with how everything goes with you!! Stay strong for your LO!
