In most cases, every other weekend is pretty normal. I have also seen custody be 50/50 though. So give it some thought, especially since you'll be on terminal leave and will have the option to spend a lot of time with them.

Sometimes they delay because they just are being obstinate. Anything that you want obviously isn't what they want.

Other times, it's because they are having second thoughts.

But there's really no point in mind-reading because it could be either one.

Just be the best you you can be. And be the best dad you can be.
