singledad,
Hope to say some helpful things to you - if not let me know. I went through the shared custody thing in my first marriage. It gets sticky sometimes. There are a few things to think of in a different way if you can -
#1 D3 is too young to know much but she does need to feel a close connection with the adults in her life for security however and whenever that is possible.
#2 - NC for 4 days isn't much to miss someone - but is it possible that your W is expressing anger toward you for NC? could she be missing you and not able to tell me? sep are hard and impair people's ability to communicate.
#3 - sounds like your W may be taking her anger meant for you out on your D3????
In any case - do what you know works with your W from the advice at his site and do what you know instinctively works for your D3.
As far as sharing time - do your best to work it out for all - and don't focus on each stitch as a personal attack. Keep up the good work - NC is harder with kids - almost impossible - DA very important skill to learn and do. Ask questions!
