Hey Newmama, I don't know if others have commented on your slapdash approach to the legal stuff,but I'd like to weigh in on it. Why do you have to give up your baby every second day? And why are you doing the legal stuff the cheap way? Penny wise is pound foolish -- sorry to come down hard on you, but I took myself off to a lawyer, and discovered that I am in much better shape financially and with respect to my childen than anticipated. Plus, it's a big, huge fat surprise to my h. I doubt very much that the courts would award split custody of a baby.
