Custody

**PLEASE NO NEGATIVE COMMENTS**

I’m making this post purely based on the fact that I just want to hear from other moms with similar experiences or routines. If you don’t have anything nice to say I’m asking you to politely refrain from commenting as this is a very delicate and emotional matter.

Husband and I separated almost 4 months ago.

-YES he is the biological father of my child

-NO I did not have an affair

-NO He did not have an affair

-YES it was a MUTUAL and AMICABLE separation

🙄

We have been married for 3 years and have a 2 year old son. Getting along fine, so far no fighting and arguing. Our son is transitioning remarkably well and seems to be doing good.

My QUESTION.

To any MOM who has had a similar experience. How did you handle custody of your newborn? So far we have it to where I have him for 2 months solely and then after that it transitions to joint custody and overnights. I plan on exclusively breastfeeding for the two months I have him and when I have him, then pump when he’s at his dads. I’m not against supplementing with formula either our 2 year old was on both.

Again, just wanting other perspectives from moms who have gone through this or something similar.

Please please please no negativity, rudeness, meanness, sarcasm, or bitchyness.
